Canvas from Easy Canvas Prints and Giveaway

Disclaimer: The product mentioned in this post is given to me to review and the giveaway is done by Easy Canvas Prints. I am not affiliated with the company nor getting paid to advertise the products. This post is written with my honest opinion.

I am so fortunate to work again with Easy Canvas Prints. The last time I worked with them was back in 2011. At that time, I got my parents' wedding picture on a canvas. It meant a lot to my dad since that's the only wedding picture my family had (rest were stolen).

This time around I wanted a picture of Tobey to remember him.
It took me days but this has to be one of my favorite pictures of him. He looks so cute, it shows his sweet behavior, and he just looks so content. I cannot believe it will be a year since we put him down. Time sure flies and I really miss him. He was my sweet baby boy!

Once I chose my picture, I had to order it on the website.
It's four easy steps; choose canvas size, upload your image, choose style, and select image options. You really cannot make a mistake unless you're like me. I will get into that later. :X The best part as you're picking out your canvas, it shows on the right from beginning to end. Once you're content with your canvas, you just have to click "add to chart" and you're done.

To be honest, I cannot remember how long it took to be shipped. I think it was around a week or two. I definitely know it wasn't more than 2 weeks. That's pretty decent knowing they have to print the canvas!

Again I will be honest, it took me couple of days to open the package. I knew I would be an emotional wreck seeing a picture of Tobey which I was.
I love the canvas! It came out really well. I do have to apologize for the quality of the picture not the canvas. I tried taking a picture straight forward but the canvas did not show in all it's glory. This was the best picture I was able to take. Once I was back to normal emotionally, I felt stupid. I realized I could have changed the height and width of the canvas to fit the picture. Basically, I could have had a canvas with Tobey's whole body instead of chopped of like I did. This is nobody's fault by myself!!! I don't know how I could have made this mistake, but it sounds so like me. :X
Here's how one of the sides look like. The picture wraps around the edges. I think it's so cool!

Thank you! It's been a tough year or almost a year and I miss him dearly. I want to think he's in a better place not feeling pain.

When you posted this the other day I wanted to stop and read it, but was busy, and when I saw the picture of Tobey in the preview, my heart just wrenched, because I share the same feeling, and you already know that. I am sorry I am late on reading the full post, but wanted to say that the picture of Tobey is beautiful, so beautiful there are no words to express. I know he is in a better place too, he's in heaven playing with my Isabell, the sweet precious gifts that they are to us, both of them, and they are the luckiest ones, to feel no more pain and to hang out with God.

Thank you for reading the post and leaving a comment! It's been a tough almost one year, and I wanted to believe the same as you that he's in heaven not feeling any pain. I miss him dearly and still think about him, but I need to keep reminding myself he's not in pain.
