Are you ready to transform your walls with wall art? But how do you know whether to invest in framed prints or frameless canvas prints? After all, both have advantages and disadvantages. In this article, we\u2019ll break down the difference between framed prints and canvas prints, and help you make the decision about which is best for you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone has their own unique home d\u00e9cor style. Some of us prefer a more structured classic look, while others like a more eclectic style that doesn\u2019t follow traditional design principles. Some of us like coastal Hamptons home d\u00e9cor while others prefer a modern minimalistic or industrial-style look. Others like creating a home design look that doesn\u2019t fit into any<\/em> traditional home d\u00e9cor themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While our individuality should be embraced and celebrated, this can make it difficult when you\u2019re trying to decide between framed prints versus frameless canvas prints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you find a style that suits your chosen home d\u00e9cor scheme? Well, keep scrolling! We\u2019ll explain the difference between framed prints and canvas prints and discuss which print type will suit your needs and personal style the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Framed Prints?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Framed prints are exactly what they sound like: wall prints with frames. But, of course, framed prints can come in all different shapes, sizes, and styles. The best quality framed prints are created with a design printed on canvas or paper, then mounted on a frame with a high-quality protective cover or glass over the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canvas Factory\u2019s Framed Prints<\/a> are printed with gallery-quality inks using the finest HP inks, so your prints will be as close as possible to the original design. They come in four different frame colours and include a clear covering to protect the print underneath. When kept out of direct sunlight, our Framed Prints can last decades without fading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Canvas Prints?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Canvas prints, on the other hand, are wall art prints printed on a flat canvas material. When an image is printed on canvas, it has a nice textured look, almost like a painting. This adds depth and intrigue to the print. The canvas is then stretched over a sturdy wooden frame to achieve a frameless print look. The best canvas prints are light, durable, and won’t sag or rip over time. Our Canvas Prints<\/a> are created using high-quality canvas and stretched professionally, so the material won\u2019t sag or be pulled too tight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Should I Get Framed Prints?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Framed prints are perfect for anyone who wants a streamlined, cohesive look in their home. Our Framed Prints<\/a> look fresh, modern, and polished, and come complete with a hanging system, ready to hang on your walls. Just add hooks and you\u2019re good to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing you may need to consider with framed prints is matching the frames. For a more cohesive look, you might want to think about using only one colour, or similar colours, like white print frames paired with light timber frames, or black framed paired with dark woodgrain frames. Of course, if you\u2019re going for a more eclectic look, it doesn\u2019t matter which frames you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Framed Prints are highly durable, as they are encased in acrylic, which is light yet won\u2019t shatter like glass if dropped. They\u2019re super easy to clean; simply wipe with a damp cloth to remove any dust or sticky hand prints! This makes them ideal for high-traffic hallways or the kids\u2019 rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Should I Get Canvas Prints?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Canvas prints, on the other hand, have more of a classic feel. Our Canvas Prints have more of a textured look, which gives your prints an art gallery-style feel. Having no frame means that classic Canvas Prints are easy to style anywhere in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Canvas Prints<\/a> are super affordable, especially in smaller sizes. The lack of frames means that your prints are super versatile.

Framed Prints Vs Canvas Prints; Which To Get<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, when it comes to framed prints versus canvas prints, which one should you go for? Well, the choice is up to you! A lot of it depends on personal style preferences. You might even choose to get both framed prints and<\/em> canvas prints if you\u2019re going for a more eclectic look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, framed prints offer a more polished aesthetic and are highly durable, especially if your home tends to get a lot of moisture or sunlight. They are also ideal for prints that might run the risk of blending in with your walls. For instance, white prints on a white wall could be turned into a Framed Print with black borders to enhance the look of the print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frameless canvas prints, on the other hand, offer a sophisticated and authentic gallery-style look. They are very light and can be a little more versatile than framed prints. That’s because you don\u2019t need to worry about matching frames together. So, if you know you\u2019re going to be moving around a lot, canvas prints could be a great option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
