A close-up where the face fills most of the frame.
Natural daylight, with no harsh flash or heavy shadows.
Taken at eye level, looking towards the camera.

Framing & sizing

Why we sell our prints unframed

Most of our prints ship unframed, so you can choose a frame you love rather than pay for one you'd swap out.

Pick your own look. Match the frame to your room, oak, black or white wood, or a mounted gallery style.
Don't pay twice. A frame you didn't choose often gets replaced. Unframed keeps the cost on the artwork.
Ships flat and safe. A flat-packed print travels far better than glass.

Prefer it ready to hang? Add a fitted black, white or natural wood frame at the size step above.

Choosing a frame that fits

Our prints come in three standard sizes, so an off-the-shelf frame is easy to find:

21 × 29.7 cm (A4) — fits any standard A4 frame.
30 × 40 cm — a common ready-made frame size.
45 × 60 cm — a popular large size, also widely sold ready-made.

Two easy ways to frame it:

Frame to size. Buy a frame in the exact size above, no mount needed.
Use a mount (mat). Choose a slightly larger frame with a mount cut to your print size, for a gallery look with a border.

Tip: check the frame's artwork opening (not its outer size), and look for a real glass or acrylic front.

How it'll look on your wall

Here's how the three sizes compare against a standard three-seat sofa (about 2 m wide) and an adult, for scale:

Above a sofa or sideboard, most people choose 30 × 40 or 45 × 60 cm. For a shelf or a gallery wall of several prints, A4 works well.

About this print

Mum saves every photo on her phone. This is the one she'll hang. Pick a favourite, a holiday with the family, a moment that's just the two of you, and we reimagine it as a digital watercolour portrait, made to go on the wall rather than stay in a camera roll.

It's the right gift for Mother's Day, a milestone birthday, or any moment when you want her to know you really thought about it. Because you did. The finished piece is personal in a way no card or flowers can be, it's her people, her moments, in a portrait worth keeping.

Before anything prints, we send a free digital proof so you can make sure it's right. Nothing goes to print until you love it. Choose from three sizes, 21 × 29.7 cm, 30 × 40 cm or 45 × 60 cm, and add an optional wood frame in Black, White or Natural for £30. Delivered in days, framed and ready to hang.

Frequently asked questions

What photo works best for the Home is Mum print?

A clear, well-lit photo where Mum's face is visible tends to give the best result, but portraits of her with family, a beloved pet or a meaningful place all work beautifully. Our artist reviews every photo before reimagining it as a watercolour, and the free digital proof lets you see the result before anything prints.

Is this actually hand-painted?

No, and we think it's important to be clear about that. The Home is Mum print is an artist-reimagined digital watercolour, made from your photo and printed on premium paper by Gelato. The result has real warmth and detail, but it is not a physical hand-painted original.

Can I add a frame?

Yes. Each size is available with an optional wood frame in Black, White or Natural, for an extra £30. The framed print arrives ready to hang, so there's nothing else to buy.

Will it arrive in time for Mother's Day or her birthday?

We print close to you and dispatch in days, so in most cases yes, but check the delivery estimate at checkout for your address. If you are cutting it close, ordering early gives us the most time to send your digital proof and get everything right.

What if I don't like the proof?

Then we change it. The proof stage is there so you can ask for tweaks to the colours, the background or the likeness, and we'll keep revising until you're happy. Nothing goes to print until you approve it.

Can I return it if I change my mind?

Because every print is made to order from your photo, we can't accept returns for a change of mind. You approve a free digital proof before we print anything, so there are no surprises. And if a print arrives damaged or not as approved, we'll put it right straight away.
