Small Letters The canvas is very nice and shipped quickly. My only complaint is with the size of the letters inside the heart - they are small in comparison to the rest of the picture. Overall, happy with the purchase.
|
Nice Job I love the canvas. If would have been so much better if the names were written in the sand. It looks more like the names were drawn with a crayon, but otherwise, it was a decent.
|
Beautiful Portrait but.. I love the picture but the names look like they are written ON the sand instead of IN the sand. It's less noticeable the further you are from the picture but it was a little disappointing. I think it will look fine once its hanging on the wall but that was my first impression. Super fast shipping though and that was awesome! I ordered it on a Monday and received it on Thursday.
|
Nice but Expensive The person I purchased it for liked it very much. The only flaw I found was I thought the price was rather steep but it was a Christmas present so I got it anyway.
|
Very sentimental gift! This was a gift for my husband in honor of our 35th anniversary. I really like that it is on the canvas rather than under a frame. However, if the lettering was just a bit bigger it would be a better product. Service was very fast and arrived well-wrapped, in perfect condition.

butch and colleen heart in sand love it!!!!!

paradise island canvas art i loved the canvas beautiful work , but i was unhappy with the fact that it dident come with a white frame, the last one i orded i took in a black frame . because in that house it went well , but this other house was very lite and bright with no black in it , so i really think you should sell black or white frames to go with the canvas, thank you NANCY RUPA
|
Very Nice The only con in this picture is the date....maybe make it a little larger...for those of us that wear glasses, it was a little hard to read....
|
Great Gift ! Great gift...great purchase... Just like the picture...
|
Heart in Sand Review I liked it alot, but your not able to see the personalized writing in the sand on the sample online. When I got it I was a little disappointed the writing looks more computer generated, it doesn't look like the way the heart is carved in the sand.
|
Kinda cheep looking I purchased this as a wedding gift for a close friend. Kinda looked faded out. To expensive for the quality. The other thing they only allow you to put the year not the complete date of the celebration. Not month or day. I would not purchase this item again
|
Distorted background I purchased the 12 x 18 size and the detail wasnt real crisp. The heart in the sand was but the background looked distorted like it was blown up too much.
|
Love the idea! I loved the idea of this photo & yes it is beautiful. But I do have to agree with many other reviewers that the names "written in the sand" look very computer generated. If that could be fixed, I'd give it 5 stars!
|
Undecided By Shopper (Enid, OK) - February 23, 2013 The canvas was nice but the names are obviously fake. If you intend to buy I would have it in a spot where you are unable to see it up close.
|
More detail By Shopper (Antelope, CA) - June 7, 2011 It would have been nice to have had the option of placing a short personal message, as was the case with your "ocean rock" piece.
|
Nice... but! By Shopper (Wellington, FL) - April 19, 2011 The canvas is really nice, but it is costly to custom frame it and the selections aren't very good from this site. Also, you'll find the size odd to frame with ready made frames. The canvas itself is a good present.
|
Pretty but..... By Shopper (Virginia Beach, VA) - March 22, 2011 This picture is really pretty but when you buy the big size like I did the picture isn't really that clear. I had bought a smaller one previously and the picture was really clear but I don't feel the same about the big one. Also I hope you dont think the words look like the are actually written in the sand cause there not. They look like they were just drawn on. But I knew that when I ordered it. Oh and the frame is not worth $30.00. You can get a really nice frame for cheaper or about the same price.
|
Do not order frame... Frame is cheap made and looks cheap
|
A Little cheesy I thought this would look more so like a real picture but it looks cheesy and pretty fake :(
|
So, so I must admit I was disappointed. Although the idea is great and personalization nice, I was pretty disappointed in the actual image. It was not crisp and clear as it appeared to be online. It looked more like something I could have copied on a color copy machine. Now I'm stuck with it as a wedding present but not happy with the price I paid. Sorry to have to write this. I have enjoyed your other products.
|
Beautiful Canvas, horrible personalization The personalization was not very good. I agree with the other reviews that its looks like someone wrote the names with a sharpie pen. Hopefully, it will look better when its hung on the wall. All of the other products I have order from this company, have been excellent. So, I was disappointed with this particular item, specifically the personalization part. Hopefully they can work on this part because the concept is really nice.
|
Nice Canvas.. cheap printing Although I was very happy with the actual canvas picture itself, I was not pleased with the printing on it. It looks like someone stamped names on the canvas, not remotely close looking to writing in the sand. I know it cannot be actual sand writing, but it looks like it was stamped on.
|
Beach Canvas Not impressed with the writing on this item. Does not look like someone drew our names in the sand - you can totally see that the writing is on the canvas in black as opposed to brown like the sand. Frame is wonderful quality and the canvas print itself is very good.
|
Canvas quality good, but personalization looks like it is written in sharpie I was very excited to get this for my boyfriend for Valentines because his house is beach themed and I thought it would go well. While I am very impressed by the quality of the canvas and the picture, the personalization is looks like it is written in sharpie. That said, it isn't written in sharpie, but the writing doesn't go with the rest of the picture. Overall, the quality of the canvas is durable and heavy and will look nice on his wall, but the personalization I could have done myself.
|
Not as good as I expected I was a bit disappointed when I opened it. Not as good as other things I have ordered in the past. The canvas was actually larger than I expected (which was great) and the picture itself was beautiful. I was disappointed in the way the names and date looked. I had expected them to look as if they had been written in the sand, but sadly it looked liked someone took a magic marker and wrote them in.
|
printing could have been better over all photo good BUT... look of names (font) didn't look like they were "drawn in the sand"
|
Disappointed I just received this item yesterday and I'm a little disappointed with the quality of the names. I agree with other reviewers when they say that it looks like the names were written in with a Sharpie. From a distance it looks good, but close up it looks a little cheap. Disappointing after receiving other wonderfully personalized items from Personalization Mall.
|
Nice but... I bought this for a wedding present for my sister. She got married on the beach. The quality of the canvas itself is great. The printing of the names however was very cheap looking. Like someone wrote them in with pen. Overall was pleased. My sister loved it! Thought it was the coolest thing. I however did not like the cheap look of the writing in the sand.
|
Not so happy I thought for the amount I paid for this canvas and frame it was't worth it. To me and others it should have been around $55 pt $60 the most.
|
mixed feelings "Our Paradise Island" was perfect for the occasion and received well. I'm sure it will be enjoyed for a long time. I was a little disappointed in the quality.
|
Paradise Island heart in sand By Shopper (Coarsegold, CA) - December 3, 2019 Disappointed. Photo is very blurry. Would return for something else if it was allowed.
|
lettering is poor It looks so fake. There should be shadows and sand outside the letters
|
Somewhat Disappointed The picture is not as clear as hoped. Also the picture hanger was not attached and when I attempted to attach the hanger it bent due to the metal being so soft and the wood so hard. Would not order again.
|
It's Ok, but not awesome By Shopper (Ooltewah, TN) - December 18, 2012 I won't reiterate what other's have said. Simply stated, BUY THE SMALL ONE. The larger prints are blurry looking and unfocused. The names in the sand look out of place and "computer generated" as others have noted. Smaller is key. I purchased the 16x24. Go smaller. Its a neat idea, but I was disappointed with how out of focus the picture looks. Its ok at an "across the room" viewing distance, but anything closer it is quite noticeable that the resolution on the picture isn't very high.
|
Paradise Island is pixelated!!! By Shopper (Tualatin, OR) - December 5, 2012 I am not satisfied with this product because the only thing that is not pixelated are the letters in the sand - otherwise everything else is extremely blurry. I could have taken a better high resolution picture on the beach and had it blown up and it would have been much better quality.
|
Very disappointed! I was so excited to order this and was very disappointed when I received it. The picture itself is blurry and the writing of the names and the year looks odd against the blurry picture. The canvas has no backing and you can see how it was stretched and stapled on the back. For the cost it could be better.
|
Product nice, customer service & personalization poor By Shopper (San Diego, CA) - August 30, 2011 When I added the 2 names to this picture, the PersonalizationMall.com site capitalized a letter in one of the names that I typed in lower case. Customer service said they couldn't help me.
I didn't get to 'personaliz'e my item the way I wanted it, I got what Personalization.com thought I wanteded with no other options to choose from.
|
Nice, but... I liked the idea of the photo, however, upon seeing it in person, I feel that it is lacking something. I think it would look better if there were a few footprints on either side of the heart, plus maybe a rock or stick laying next to it, showing what drew the heart. I think that would make it look more realistic.
|
Not there best By Shopper (phoenix, AZ) - February 8, 2011 I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and was rather disappointed. I have purchased other items so did not expect this. The canvas and picture are rather nice; however the personalization unfortunately looks very “digital” and gives the entire picture an amateurish appearance. The overall impression is rather juvenile.
|
Good Idea - Not so great quality I haven't ever ordered anything from Personalization Mall before so this was the first thing. I ordered this for my wife for Valentines Day as a gift but I was disappointed in the quality of the image you get with it. Granted, my wife is a photographer so I tend to pick images apart as well and I am sure she is going to pick it apart but it is a really good idea tho. I don't think I will order any more canvases from personalization mall but I will probably try other things.
