Canvas Prints

For a really unique gift or for a talking point in your Living Room I recommend getting one of your favourite photos printed onto canvas. If you have done a lot of travelling or if you are into photography this is a great way to show off some of your work and it's so nice to have pictures hanging in your house that actually mean something to you instead of non-descript images that you buy in shops.

Harvey Norman (Eastway Business Park, Limerick) offer this service, you can bring prints or digital images and it usually takes about 24 hours to process. Prices start at €24.99 for an A5 image and obviously increase in price the larger the canvas. Be aware that the wooden backing is not included in the price and costs an extra €15. Spectra in the Crescent Shopping Centre also offer this service although I think its slightly more expensive. I'm sure there are lots of photo shops nationwide that also provide this service.

I've taken lots of Black & White pictures of my newborn nephew so providing at least one of them turns out nice I'm getting this done as a present for his parents for his Christening in March! This would also be a nice gift for Valentines Day if you or your other half are into photography. Maybe a picture of wherever you went on your first date, or your first holiday - the possibilities are endless!
