I love design magazines and online sites that show beautiful homes, aren't they fun to look through? The pristine living rooms and accessorized bedrooms make me long for a time that my house won't be covered in toys, picture books and socks (Big Sister E seems to put multiple pairs on and off throughout the day).
But even when my kids are grown and we can have decorative accents back on shelves and tables again, the things that won't change will be the art. Yes, we probably won't have finger paintings and cotton ball + glue creations displayed, however, my treasured canvas prints from UPrinting will definitely remain.
My husband makes fun of the print of Little Sister B that I chose (on the right) because of the funny, overly-happy face that she was making, but I love it. I wanted images of both girls around the same age and these are from when they were each 9 months old and, in my mind, show off their beauty and the joy of childhood. Having them printed on canvas has converted them from a simple photograph into a work of art.
Even better, it was so easy to create and display these images with UPrinting, as they are definitely the company that makes it easy and fast to print online. After uploading your picture and choosing any of their standard or custom sizes, and option I really appreciate is being able to add a 2-inch border to the canvas so that no part of my pictures were lost during framing (which I did myself with cheap frames from Michael's that end up looking expensive and classic when paired with great canvases).
No matter if you are looking to add artwork to your home, produce something professional for your business or are searching for ideas for a perfect Mother's Day gift, UPrinting does it all. From business cards to postcards to vinyl banners, they'll print it quickly and even have live operators standing by 24 hours a day during the week to answer any questions.
Plus, due to the generosity of UPrinting, one person will have the opportunity to turn their favorite picture into a work of art, because...
One lucky person will win a 16" x 20" rolled canvas from UPrinting of their own - including 1 business day turnaround and free UPS ground shipping! ARV $25!
To enter to win your own 16" x 20" rolled canvas: Tell me about your favorite piece of art in your home. Is it a photograph, painting or child's creation? Why do you love it?

I actually have two favorites and both are photos: My wedding photo and a picture of my daughter under a blanket when she was an infant. Both represent special times in my life: my wedding and my decision to become a parent.
My favorite painting is a caricature with my husband and I everytime I look at it I laugh but it also reminds me of the great time I had at the fair with him that year. :)

We have a painting made in Korea that has a mountain, cherry trees, an islet with Korean buildings, and a river; absolutely beautiful. I love it because it's from my childhood. We've had it since I was about five or six when we were living in Korea.

My two favorite pieces of "art" are the personalized coffee mugs my boys made. They each drew a picture (both of tractors!) and we sent them in. In a few weeks we had a personalized mug with their drawings on it--Fun!
2 years ago our then 5yo daughter water-painted a ship. It's an amazing piece of art. It's by far my most favorite.

Our favorite is a picture of my son when he was only a week old. It was taken with him laying on a teddy bear.
It is just so adorable how the bear is so much bigger than he is. It reminds me of his newborn days everytime I look at it.

My favorite piece of artwork that I have is a photo I took at ground zero after 9/11. The photo lab accidentally crinkled the negative but when printed, the crinkles look like angels.

My favorite piece of art includes the artwork my son comes home with from school. I display it on a curtain rod with clips in the playroom!
Currently my favorite piece of art is a photograph of our three puppies cuddled together. They look as if they were posing for the shot and it would look even better on a 16x20 rolled canvas! :)

My new fave piece of art is one I just put together, me recently moved into our 100 year old home and have been cleaning, we found newspaper bits from 1929, so I framed part of the front page with the date. Its looks cute with the matting I did and has historical significance to our home
