Father’s Day with Canvas Prints: Gift Ideas for all Dads
Presenting Canvas Prints. These are no ordinary wall fillers. We’re talking museum-worthy quality, built on solid pine frames, printed with eco-friendly inks that don’t just pop: they practically sing. And the best part? You won’t need to remortgage the house. Most pieces come in under £20. It’s the kind of upgrade every empty wall needs.
Whether your dad’s a Sunday roast savant or a sideline cheerleader, there’s a canvas print custom-made for every dad. Meet the dad archetypes and their perfect photo-on-canvas moment:
The Foodie
If Dad’s roast is the crown jewel of Sundays, capture it in all its glory. Get a hero shot just as the gravy glistens. Bonus points if steam is still rising. Recommended to be printed in large because something this mouth-watering deserves to be immortalised. Remember, a simple background keeps the focus where it belongs: on that Yorkshire pudding mountain.
The Gamer
Maybe your dad’s more into consoles than casseroles. Did he finally beat you in Mario Kart? Snap a screenshot. Or dig out that grainy arcade selfie and transform it into retro pixel art. Whether it’s victory or vintage vibes, make any gaming moment wall-worthy.
Tip: Use burst mode/ continuous shooting mode during the action for that perfect expression of win-fuelled glee. And some advice? Make sure to test this feature on the phone before the game.
The DIY King
That garden shed glow-up? Almost worthy of being displayed at the museum. Line up a photo of Dad proudly in action with the final touches and add a cheeky “approved by Dad” caption. Here you’ve got a mini museum of elbow grease.
The Sports Nut
He’s cheered every muddy match, crossed finish lines, maybe even dislocated something in a dad-friendly five-a-side. Take that panoramic shot of him at the 10K finish or the sidelines moment during your kid’s first goal. Wide format brings all the atmosphere. And if the light’s golden hour? Even better.
The Sentimental Softy
You know the type. The Phil Dunphy from Modern Family. The one who tears up at family toasting. Dig up a vintage photo of Dad holding the newborn baby from almost 20 years ago, restore the colour, and turn it into a multigenerational masterpiece. It’s not just a gift. It’s a legacy on a wall.
The How-To Bit (That’s Actually Fun)
Head to my-picture.co.uk, pick a size, preview it, and bask in the glorious simplicity. Got more than one dad to celebrate? Duplicate the design.
Boom, sorted.
Why This Gift Hits Different
Canvas prints don’t fade into the clutter. They spark conversations, anchor memories, and (unlike those socks) never need ironing or finding the missing pair. Every glance reminds Dad he is appreciated, not only on Father’s Day, but every single day.
