#2 Something Sweet to Hang on Your Walls

Metal Prints Last Forever! Starting at $12.99

Line your bare walls with your favorite memories, on canvas, metal or behind a frame.

Metal (Aluminum) Prints are our favorite when it comes to wall hangings. Metal prints won't fade over time, they last an extremely long time, and they have a gorgeous glossy sheen. Metal prints take between 8-10 business days to arrive. These must be ordered online through our website.

Canvas wraps are our second most popular gift for Valentine's day! You can order online or come in store with the photo that you would like on canvas. Canvas wraps have pre-set sizes, but if you have a custom dimension needed, we can most certainly make a custom size for you. Canvas wraps are perfect for filling empty walls. Wraps will take between 5-8 business days to be completed. Canvas wraps start at $39.99.

Photo print orders can be completed same day! Prints start at $.35/4x6, and sizes up to 8x10 can be printed within 15 minutes of an order being sent through. Print off of your smartphone easily. Our photo kiosks in store allow for light editing and cropping as well.
