InkDoodle Canvas Review
I love art work. I adore art work that I actually had a hand in. Noooo I didn’t do the printing or the stretching or anything complicated like that. No, I did the easy thing I pushed the button on the camera. So technically I had a finger in the work. I am obsessed with InkDoodle!! How many times have you heard that phrase here on Peanut Butter and Whine? But, I am totally obsessed with InkDoodle! They do so many things! Like canvas prints. The site is awesome and super easy to use. The canvas size selection means I can create the perfect canvas for any wall in my home. I…

Despite its name, cotton duck canvas has nothing to do with ducks. It comes in a variety of weights…

Y’all know my favorite area in California is Yosemite. I love when we go camping. I always come away with hundreds of photographs. One of our favorite spots in Yosemite is at Mirror Lake. The water is so still and so clear that it truly mirrors the splendor that is Yosemite. I was giddy when I found a Getty Image from Photos.com of the rock that we consider OUR SPOT at Mirror Lake. The name Photos.com by Getty Images does not do this site justice. This site is amazing! From posters to canvas and acrylic to aluminum. You can even have stunning images printed on Birchwood!! I was giddy to…
