If there\u2019s one rule about interior design<\/a> in the modern age, it\u2019s that there really are very few rules. Anything can be used as a design inspiration or material, from canvas prints to old newspapers, design printing on metal to rummage sale furniture pieces. Whether it\u2019s photo printing to bring your memories and loved ones into the design or going back a few decades for colour palettes and visual styles, it\u2019s an \u2018anything goes\u2019 kind of era, and you should take advantage of that. Because \u2018anything goes\u2019 means that there are no wrong decisions, so why spend thousands of dollars hiring a professional designer when you can do a lot of this yourself these days with some confidence, personality, and a few online tools. And your most useful online tool of all? Canvas Printing Services for the win.<\/p>\n

Designing with Canvas Prints Idea One: A Custom Headboard<\/h2>\n

Your bedroom is your oasis, your retreat. It should be comfortable and serene, but also be charged with your personality \u2013 it\u2019s not the public areas of your home, where you entertain. It\u2019s where you go to be yourself and recharge.<\/p>\n

A headboard is a dramatic addition to any bedroom<\/a>; it gives the room a focal point and is an opportunity to inject a jolt of colour, energy, and personality into the room. Headboards are one of the few design elements where it\u2019s better to Go Big \u2013 the bigger the better.<\/p>\n

With some awesome prints of treasured memories or loved ones or simply amazing images from your adventures, you can easily create a headboard that amazes. A collage of images or a grouping of separate pictures that combine into a larger image is a great way to bring not only your visual sense into the space, but the warm texture of canvas as well.<\/p>\n

Designing Idea Two: A Family Message Board<\/h2>\n

\"Designing<\/p>\n

We often think of photos on canvas as an elegant, classic way of displaying art on the walls, and we\u2019d never dream of sticking push-pins into one \u2013 but it doesn\u2019t have to be that way. Combining fun images of the family, the pets, or just amazing things you\u2019ve photographed around the neighbourhood with cheap canvas prints and you\u2019ve got a message board that you and the family can pin anything to: reminders, menus, photos, artwork \u2013 anything.<\/p>\n

Using an affordable printing service, you can create an amazing communication centre for the family that changes with the seasons, or have custom message boards made for birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays that can be re-used over and over again \u2013 or made new each year as part of your family\u2019s tradition.<\/p>\n

Designing Idea Three: Dressed-Up Bookshelves<\/h2>\n

Even in the digital age, books are still found in most homes, and even if you prefer reading on a device the beauty and power of the book as a physical object is undeniable. Bookshelves are so often perfunctory affairs, and nothing is more perfunctory about your standard bookshelf than the backing \u2013 usually a sheet of thin plywood nailed into the frame.<\/p>\n

\"Designing<\/p>\n

Why not replace that flimsy backing with a mural made from several photos? Your family, or perhaps just images of great authors taken from the Internet, or something else entirely? The backing of a bookshelf is often a forgotten visual opportunity in a home \u2013 take advantage of it with affordable online photo printing.<\/p>\n

Your home is yours \u2013 as personal as it gets. It doesn\u2019t matter if anyone else understands or appreciates your style or sensibility \u2013 only that you do. Canvas prints offer an affordable and classic way of adding texture and images to your home\u2019s design that no one else can replicate \u2013 because it\u2019s personal!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
