Every year I ask my mother what she’d like for Mother’s Day and every year she has said nearly the same thing – she wants ACTUAL photos in ACTUAL frames. I’m happy to oblige! As a mother, I can also attest that photos of my loved ones are among my most prized possessions too. I was so excited to work with Art.Com to create something beautiful for my mother and mother in law. Selfishly though I wish I could keep all three!! When deciding which pictures to choose, I thought about some of my favorites we’ve taken over the last few months. I can still remember vividly that Saturday morning of the boys waking up, and jumping on our bed. They had slept in – a treat for us all! They had managed to make their way in our bed by morning and so we all woke up around the same time. I remember brushing my teeth and seeing them jumping on the bed like a couple of monkeys. Thankfully my camera was right there, and I know I’ll treasure those photos forever. It’s such a gift to get them off of my hard drive and onto a spot on my mother and mother in laws wall. The large one is one of us from the other night – it was actually a pretty hectic day, and slowing down on the dock that evening brought me such a sense of calm. I love that I will share these with my mother and mother-in-law for Mother’s Day this year. Art.com makes it incredibly easy to turn your photos into art with their Photos[to]Art service. The whole process for me took under 10 minutes. You upload your photos then choose canvas, a framed or unframed print, wood mounting, art on metal or framing, prints or acrylic. I picked framed print because I loved the gold coventry frame they have with an ivory top mat. I chose that combination because it is so timeless! But there are hundreds of other beautiful combinations, and every shade under the sun to create the perfect custom piece for your mom, or someone who has acted like one to you!
When these arrived I got them out of the package, and placed them in our living room. I had the boys pick out which grandma gets what (: They are so excited to give them to Nina and Grandma on Mother’s Day!
Thank you Art.com for sponsoring this post and for allowing me to create something beautiful for two very special ladies for Mother’s Day.
