Wall Art Stickers UK Review *Giveaway*

You may remember I wrote about wall stickers as an alternative to wallpaper/painting etc in a post about Nursery Inspiration prior to Finley being born. If not - you should read that first HERE.

Well, when Wall Art Stickers UK offered to provide a sticker of choice for me to apply and see what I thought, I jumped straight to their website (www.wallartstickersuk.com) and looked for nursery wall stickers.
... But when I got there I spotted THIS and thought: what a treat this would be to get Carson excited for Finley's arrival?!

Carson has his bed in the alcove next to a chimney breast in his room. The wall is painted blue and he has masses of spongebob stuff in his room so the theme, if you like, is blue and yellow. This sticker couldn't have been more perfect for both the timing AND his room decor. You can opt to have this sticker in a colour different to the yellow and their colour chart is easily accessible by shuffling through the product photo's.

So the sticker arrived and I told Carson I would have his surprise ready for him when he came home from school. One little spanner in the works, in the form throbbing back pain, meant I would wait until the Saturday morning instead as I was truly unsure of how long I would have to stand for in applying the sticker.

Well Saturday morning comes along and I jump to it, and this is how we did...




I opt to cut my sticker down in smaller sections so it can fit in the alcove without being squished. Really simple to do as each letter is individual with no 'surround' fixing the design.



Stick tape down the centre of the section (vertically) - kind of creating a hinge.
Peel backing off and, using the tool provided - reminds me of a wallpaper brush without bristles, fan outwards and ensure there are no air bubbles whilst firmly pushing the sticker in to place.
Gently peel the cover off of the top and BOOM!

The final result? ...


 Completed in just 11 MINUTES from beginning to end!! (And started labour too, I'll have you all know!)

For just £9.99 as well, it has completely transformed an entire room. I couldn't be more thrilled with this and in future, I won't be buying expensive wallpapers - even for just a feature wall. There's no need. Wall stickers are seamless, fast and very cost effective.

*REVIEW & GIVEAWAY* Wall art with CanvasDesigns

There's a lot of places to get canvas pictures these days, but how do you know which one to use? Do you go one price, recommendation, most 'in the news'?

Having the opportunity to review a canvas of choice from www.canvasdesign.co.uk helps!

I had one picture in mind. One picture that has one too many people on it for my liking! Long story short, he 'gegged in' on the photo and ruined something totally amazing for Carson and CarsonsDaddy. It is a picture of the 2 of them with Luis Suarez.

As humongous Liverpool fans, this is mega. Like, amazingly cool.

Every time I'd attempted to have a canvas done in the past, I'd cropped the picture first, but of course you lost resolution and image quality so it's not recommended to go ahead and place your order.

I had a mooch on CanvasDesign's website and quickly, simply, realised I could simply move my image around the capture area so no cropping was necessary. I got excited - ha! Not kidding though... I actually did squeal! I emailed the lovely Loren, who'd initially been in touch re the review opportunity, as I wanted to doubly confirm that this was the case and she gave me the nod.

Couple of days later, whadaya know... my canvas print arrived - without a warped pixel in sight. I cannot believe the quality of the image and the thick canvas it's printed upon. Handily, they send a hanging kit too (no balancing on a nail for me!)



You would never believe that there had been one extra person to the left (Suarez's right).

This canvas will be treasured for years and years to come, by both father and son. And the cost for something similar? My print is 12x16 and worth £16.49. You really can't get more reasonable than this.

Carson's reaction was something else! He screamed with joy and this canvas now takes pride of place on his very own bedroom wall. He told his daddy "I'm with my heroes on my wall" - wow, just.. wow.


CanvasDesign offer canvas prints from as low as £7.99. 
FREE 48 HOUR Shipping and Discount Code: BLOG15 for all my readers to get 15% off your next order too, I really couldn't recommend these guys enough to get your precious captured moments printed on to canvas.
