Ka-Ching! Price Drop.

It's nearly the new year, and we're starting off 'new' a bit earlier! Over the past several weeks, we've been discussing our price structure, and have decided to keep it a bit more basic, without much reliance on promotions or regular 'special' offers. The result - a much friendlier price structure!

Wall Material

Material	Old	New
StickIt™	$10 per square foot	$6.80 per square foot
Canvas	$10 per square foot	$7.00 per square foot
Fabric-Backed Vinyl	$8 per square foot	$6.80 per square foot

These price changes take will take place immediately (which is now), so we're all ready to go. Oh, we have canvas print updates as well!

Wall Murals: Why Cover Your Entire Wall?

Sometimes when we say the words "wall mural," people envision a print that covers every inch of their walls, which can go beyond what a person budgets for the project. Today, I'm here to bust that myth apart. To be clear: full-wall murals & Lifewalls are stunning, visually appealing, and add an incredibly unique flare to any room. But.... so do partial-wall Lifewalls & murals! In fact, a very good portion of our wall prints have been smaller, partial-wall ones, such as prints that extend across a wall in a single strip, or ones that just serve as a wall-spicer-upper.

3 Main Benefits of a Partial-Wall Mural or Lifewall:

1. Affordability - This makes sense. You're not covering your entire wall, and so you won't be spending as much on the print itself. Depending on how small you go, you could easily save a few hundred dollars vs. covering an entire wall.

Use a bunch of your own pictures for a long, partial-wall LifeWall. 

 2. Ease of Installation - For the partial wall prints, they usually come in smaller, fewer panels that need to be applied. This means it should be very easy to install. I personally helped install the prints at Caldo Italian Kitchen. We did have multiple panels, but due to their size, it was so unbelievably easy & quick to put them up. In fact, I thought it was rather therapeutic. This opens up entirely an entirely new door: mural installation as stress relief. Might take a while to catch on, but I believe in it. To make it easier, our StickIt material applies by peeling & sticking. No mess, no hassle, and you can redo it a bunch of times if you want.

This is just my dog Blue. 

3. Unique - You won't see a lot of wall art like this. Most people stick with traditional prints they just 'hang' on the wall. But sticking it on? Come on - that's different!

Hope you're interested in this idea! We're pretty excited about it. Like I said, it can all be designed on our website. And if you have trouble with that, just give us a call or an email and we'll help you out. Bye!

What's a Lifewall?

One of the most frequent questions we've received is just that: "What's a Lifewall?" In short, we view a Lifewall as any sort of wall print that involves several of a person's favorite photos. The "multi-photo" concept is what distinguishes a Lifewall from any sort of mural or canvas print. It can be on any sort of our material - StickIt™, fabric-backed vinyl, or satin canvas. However, it's got to say something about your life, and be intended for a wall (duh)! That said... let's see some examples! Here are a couple that are currently displayed as examples on our website:

BUT... I know. These aren't real life Lifewalls. So, here you are! Real ones designed by a real human being on our website!

We were told the process was easy, and yes, fun! He didn't do them all in one sitting, of course. Thankfully, after you create an account with us, you're able to design and save items in your cart if you want to change or finish them later. By the way, all of these Lifewalls were printed on StickIt, our repositionable material. So... installation was super easy & mess-free!

 I hope this helps to illustrate what a "Lifewall" really is. The options are unlimited. You could create your own with fewer pictures, borders, more or less text, etc. But the concept is there. Your life on your wall!

A Few of Our Projects...

We love to do the murals, Lifewalls, and canvas prints for homes & individuals. But that's not all we've been up to! Over the past few months, we've been busy with projects for businesses around the area. I don't have pictures for all of them yet, but I couldn't resist to show off a couple of what we do have.

 1. Caldo Italian Kitchen - We were initially supposed to just do a couple of thinner murals for Caldo, located in Marshall, MN, but the project evolved into doing some peel & stick signs, a canvas print, and even a couple ADDITIONAL murals. Here's what I have for Caldo:

 I promise - as soon as I get pictures of the remaning murals (one is over the bar and another is vertical near a window), I'll update this post. Until then - take what you can get! Note: the murals here were all printed on our repositionable StickIt fabric. It applied very easy and we have had great success with it.

 2. Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - I had never actually heard of this place before they came to us with a project in mind. Since then, I've heard some great things! While I don't have a picture of the actual installation or finished project, I do have a cropped concept of the mural. It was about 9 feet tall and 40 feet wide - one of the largest prints we've done thus far. The owner was great to work with, and even kindly invited us up to see it sometime. Personally, I can't wait for it.

3. The Daily Grind - This is a coffee shop (but they also have food!) here in Marshall just a couple of blocks from us. A while back, we did a canvas display featuring the artwork of Bill Van der Hagen. It went extremely well!

We got some incredible feedback from this show, and so we might do it again sometime! We've paired with another photographer (Mr. John Krohn) since then, so we'll also have a new variety of images to display. We'll keep you posted. That's all I have for now. We might have a couple more larger business/organizations coming up soon, so stay tuned! Have a good one.
