Mother’s Day Gifts: Wall Art or Chocolates and Flowers Again?
Mother’s Day is just around the corner. You must be racking your brains again about what to get your mom for her special day. Flowers again? chocolate? Or another Mother’s Day card? Why not give her something different and lasting like wall art?
Canvas prints, like paintings or photos on canvas, are the perfect gift for anyone on any occasion. They are unique and tell the recipient that you went out of your way to get them something different. It’s something you had to think about to make sure she would like what’s on the canvas.
Canvases are also personal gifts because they represent something the recipient will appreciate. Moms will appreciate some wall art in their bedroom, kitchen, or living room. Think about this before deciding on a canvas or mural for your mom.
Where do you want to hang some works of art? Is the space big enough for large canvas prints? Would you like a picture of herbs and spices in your kitchen or would you prefer to appreciate a beautiful landscape or seascape in the living room?
If you think she might want to hang a picture on canvas in her kitchen, take steps to make sure the canvas wall art you buy will fit. Consider the color of the kitchen walls, cabinets, and other things in the room. Avoid getting canvas that is the same color as the wall paint because you have to create some contrast.
Get wall art that complements other things in the room, like the color of the kitchen cabinets, the floor tiles, or the appliances. As for the topic, think about the things your mom likes to eat or make for dinner. Do you like to use fresh herbs or exotic spices? You can find paintings on canvas of spices in a souk on the other side of the world.
If your mom likes gardening, she might like canvas prints of exotic flowers, trees, or plants. A photographic print of beautiful mountain scenery could look great in her living room. If your mom is a hopeless romantic, she may want to hang photos of a sunset on a canvas in her bedroom.
The photographs can be printed and stretched on canvas, they can come in color, black and white or in triptych or 3-piece canvas. Choose the style of your wall art according to the design of your mom’s house. Is your home modern, contemporary or traditional?
Consider whether you would like the image framed or as is on a gallery wrapped canvas. You will have many options to think about because canvases are so versatile. No matter what your mom’s tastes are, you’ll find something she’ll enjoy looking at. They are not only gifts, but also decoration pieces.
