5. 12x18 Wood Print

When we print your photo on wood, you get a piece of artwork that’s loaded with character and completely unique. In fact, no two prints are alike! The wood’s natural warm tones and grain become a part of your image, creating a beautiful effect that lends a subtle vintage feel to your photo.
The gorgeous nine-layered hardwood edges are left natural, providing a uniquely artisan look. Because we’re printing your photo directly onto the wood’s natural surface, the color of the wood will show in areas of your photo that includes white or low saturation. The solid feel is immediately noticed when you hold it in your hands, and you just know it’s a piece of art that’s made to last. Your mom will love how unique this gift is.
