APC Options

Best Choice (Free)

Overwhelmed? Take the pressure off you and slap it on an expert.

• Ideal when you’re on the edge about which option to choose
• Our experienced staff considers the subject and composition of your image in relation to the size and shape of canvas ordered, then selects the edge treatment that will look best

Image Wrap (Free)

For images that are too good to be contained by four corners. When you choose “Image Wrap,” the top, bottom and sides of your image will wrap around the edges of the stretcher frame. Image Wrap results are stellar when one of the following is true:

• You’re ordering a pretty big canvas wrap, say 24” x 24” or bigger, and there is plenty of “expendable” background on all four sides of your photo
• You don’t mind if parts of the primary subject of your image wrap around the canvas edges
• You composed your image with an Image Wrap in mind or have factored the Image Wrap into your digital file, prepared and sized according to our guidelines

Reflected Edges (Free)

A sleight of hand to make your image gallery wrap-ready, “Reflected Edges” preserve the original composition of your image on the face of the finished canvas. The outermost portions of your image (at the top, bottom and sides) are “reflected” to create additional image specifically for the canvas wrap edges.

Reflected Edges may be the ticket for you if:

• You like the look of a traditional canvas wrap (i.e. “Image Wrap”) – but don’t want any of your existing image used to wrap around the sides
• Parts of people or pets are not very close to the left or right sides of your photo. (Body parts look pretty weird when reflected.)

Solid Color Edges (from $2.55)

Sometimes you just want to color outside the lines. When you choose “Color Edges,” we’ll apply any color you like to the edges of your wrapped canvas.

• Perfect if you want the clean, modern look of solid color edges
• Black edges will be applied by default – or specify a different color preference in the Comments during Step 4 of the order process
• Like Reflected Edges, this treatment keeps your entire image on the front of the canvas

If you want to stretch your own canvas wraps, then you’re going to need some extra image beyond the “live area” for the edges of your frame.

We’ll serve it right up when you order your canvases “Unstretched” and tell us the depth of your stretcher frames. And we’ll still give you our customary 2” of additional unprinted margins on all four sides so you’ll have plenty of extra canvas to grab with your pliers.

Dust Covers
(from $6.00)

Our canvas prints are safe from even the largest dust bunny. But many professional photographers like to present clients with an attractive dust cover because the look is consistent with traditionally framed photo products. That’s why we created a canvas-compatible Dust Cover for our canvas wraps that includes:

Integrated Easels
($6.00)

Let your canvas take a load off – with as much pazazz as a picture frame!

Sawtooth Hangers
(Free)

Every APC canvas wrap arrives ready to hang with standard hanging hardware installed, consisting of sawtooth hanger(s) and clear rubber bumpers that offset the hangers, protect your walls, and stabilize your canvas.

But if you’re looking for something different, we also offer three premium hardware options to meet your needs.

Hanging Wire
($7.00 Installed; or Free with Framed prints)

If you’d like a traditional hanging wire for your canvas wraps, select the Hanging Wire option and we’ll expertly attach one for you.

Self-Leveling Hangers
($10.00 Installed)

This ingenious new hanging system helps you nail a perfect installation every time! Forget about those level, precisely measured marks you usually need to position picture hooks for a large piece of art. Our Self-Leveling Hangers allow a pretty big margin of error in both horizontal and vertical nail placement, so now you can pretty much “eyeball it” — and you'll still end up with a perfectly level installation! Ideal for all panoramas and any gallery wrap exceeding 24" in width.

Security Hanging Hardware
($15.00 Partially installed)

Keep your canvas on lock down in areas where sticky fingers or high traffic are a concern. When you choose the Security Hanging Hardware option, we’ll prepare your canvas accordingly and supply the additional hardware you need for a totally secure installation.

Digital Proofs
($1.00)

Digital proofs aren't customary since we carefully check each image to make sure it’s well suited to its canvas or metal print order before it's ever created. We also aim to ship every order within 2 – 4 days of receiving it. But we also want you to be elated with your canvas print. So if you want a digital proof before we make your canvas print you can request one in Step 4 of the Create a Canvas process.

Your Brand Delivery
($5.00)

Listen up pro photographers and artists – we can ship directly to your customers and include your marketing materials — all the while saving you time and money.

This pro-level perk means that:

Gift Messages
