Measure Twice, Order Once…Think Thrice

This is one of my favorite all time photos of the cat. He just looks so content and somewhat stately. I love that my wallpaper was in the photo so when I found out about Hello Canvas and realized what a wonderful product they had, I wanted to order more.
I needed a piece of art to go above my headboard. My bedroom is mostly black and white so I thought the cat would be a great addition. It would be a really personal touch.

So I put the cat to canvas and it’s beautiful – and huge. His head is about three feet across.

I measured, I did.

But for some reason, my sense of proportion was waaaay off.

As cute as he is, I don’t k now if I can wake up every morning thinking that he’s going to eat me.

I think that a canvas this big would be really great with different content, one that doesn’t make one feel like they are being stalked for food.

I think that a smaller canvas would have looked great. It’s just that it’s so big…
The husband saw my post last weekend and he called very excitedly and said, “I know the perfect place for this!” I cringed a little bit, hoping it wasn’t anywhere in the house, much less the bedroom.
But he does have the perfect place. And when it’s up in its place of honor, I’ll take a photo and show you.
So Hello Canvas, you do beautiful work. I’ll place another order soon. This one will be for a very, very, very small horse.











I do have the perfect spot for it!
I ordered a 16″x20″ canvas of one of my flower pictures from Hello Canvas, and I was taken aback by the scale of it, too. It is beautiful, though. And thank goodness there weren’t any bees or insects in the picture, or else I would freak out about the 4″ tall insect on the wall!
That is too funny! Now you need to take one of the photos of the cat next to the cat canvas and put it on canvas!
it’s just fab!! i love it!

You are one crazy woman – that thing is huge! But it looks great, Puna! So where is Big Daddy gonna hang it? Inquiring minds, and all…
WOW! I’ve been looking for a print to canvas shop that was reasonably priced for quite some time. Never found one until now. Thanks so much for sharing this post!
