This is a photograph...not on canvas.
I want to be as fair as I can because this company seems like an good one with hardworking people. I don't want to hurt their business and I fear this could. So I'm going with 4 stars as opposed to my initial 3.<br /><br />I have to be honest. I would never pay $12.00 for a picture of a sign. By picture, I mean photograph. I knew it was unframed. That wasn't a shock. But when the description said "unframed art" I expected a picture on a canvas type board. Not a picture I could have blown up on my home computer for the cost of 1 piece of photo paper and some ink. I expected to get it, take it straight from the packaging to wrap it, and BAM Mother's Day covered! But no. Now I have to go to a store to find a frame, because there is no way to get one on Amazon and have it here by Mother's Day (writing this the Friday evening before the celebration of Mamas), and figure this out. I am not thrilled.<br /><br />Now, as for the actual product, it IS beautiful. It's not blurry or bad looking in any way. At a glance, it looks like it is written on an old chalkboard. The photo paper isn't card stock, or worse, regular printing paper. It's Fujifilm Fujicolor Crystal Archive Paper. A paper you expect photos to be on. If I had known and wanted that, this would be perfect. I did read some reviews and felt confident I knew what was buying. I did not read anything between the initial description, picture, price, option to buy and the reviews. That's on me, true. Plus, its entirely possible that my expectations of "unframed art" are unreasonable. But this is how I feel. Not cheated, not lied to...maybe a little mislead, just a teeny bit. So, I would buy from this company again, but I would read everything and know for sure what I am getting.
Rating: 4 stars
