January marks the perfect time for a home refresh after the holiday bustle. And what’s a quicker way to revitalize your living space than with captivating Print Art? It’s an incredibly accessible and budget-friendly option to inject new life into your décor. Whether you repurpose an existing frame or discover a unique one at a thrift store, swapping out old art for pieces you truly love is a breeze. Let’s explore how to order prints that emulate the look of expensive, custom artwork without breaking the bank!

Recently, I brought this striking swan print to life at my local Office Depot, and it completely transformed the room! Having the frame already meant the entire project cost me around $35 – a steal, especially with a coupon code.

For those impactful, larger-scale pieces, local print shops like Office Depot, Staples, or FedEx are your go-to. Personally, I favor Office Depot for their excellent matte paper option, which lends a sophisticated touch to print art. For smaller pieces, 8×10 inches or less, the convenience of home printing can’t be beat.

Ready to create your own large print art statement piece? Here’s a simple guide:
- Start Here: Navigate to the “Custom Posters” section on the Office Depot website.
- Upload Your Art: Click “upload your design” to add your chosen image file.
- Select Your Size: Choose from a range of sizes, from 16×20 inches all the way to a dramatic 40×60 inches. You can also specify landscape or portrait orientation to perfectly suit your print art.
- Paper Choice Matters: Crucially, remember to select premium matte paper at checkout. This upgrade elevates the look and feel of your print art, mimicking high-end gallery pieces.
- File Quality Check: The website will notify you if your uploaded file isn’t high-resolution enough for your selected size. Opting for high-quality images ensures your print art is crisp and clear, even when enlarged.
- Pro-Tip for Savings: Before finalizing your order, search online for “[Office Depot coupon code]” to potentially snag a discount and make your print art project even more budget-friendly.
DIY Print Art at Home: Small Prints, Big Impact
For smaller print art projects, printing at home offers ultimate convenience. Here’s how to achieve beautiful results:
- Paper Selection: Elevate your home-printed print art by using specialty paper. I personally love linen paper for its subtle texture and luxurious feel.
- Reliable Home Printer: A dependable wireless printer makes home print art projects seamless. Our HP printer is a workhorse, allowing us to print effortlessly from laptops and mobile devices.
- Sizing Tips for Perfect Prints:
- Frame-Ready Sizes: When printing, select “paper size” in your printer settings to match your frame dimensions directly.
- Scaling for Fit: Alternatively, use the “scale” option in your print settings to adjust the artwork size down to perfectly fit your chosen frame. This is especially useful when working with pre-downloaded print art files.
