They turn any image, including your favorite photograph into an amazing and affordable hand made painting.



Mabye one of the family to hang on the walls of her new home?



What I liked of them is that they at reeeeaally good at capturing the physical likeness. Not to mention very, very affordable (they even combine multiple photos into a single painting or enhance your original photo at no extra charge). I was very impressed with the results.



In addition to portrait paintings they also do paintings of pets, landscapes and anything that means something to you (like your first car, favorite vacation spot, etc).



They’re the nicest people… because I was late with my friend’s gift, they even hand made a custom card to notify her that a special gift was coming her way. I highly recommend them.



Best wishes!!
Reply:Jo-Jo, Moms don't need baskets of fruits and sweets, they are an expression of "superficial love" they don't last long. This is what I think, You are very brave and unselfish and understanding, in your approach to this departure. I think your Mom and step-dad are over the moon that you are pleased for them to go live their own lives. To hear the words "I love you Mom and Dad" coming in no uncertain terms from you will be the greatest gift you could give them and the most memorable one. I love the idea of the scrap book full of pictures of all that are left behind. Sadly I can't help you with any suggestions to make your gift basket any more special, but I am sure that in due course somebody will, just remember, that they will be feeling the pain of moving away just as much as you will miss them when they go. be happy
