Friendship Socks are Sent Through Social Media, Perfect for Teens. friendshipsocks.com
INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | TWITTER
Friendship Socks is an innovative new concept that lets you share through social media.
Friendship Socks is successfully challenging the traditional approach to gifting by allowing customers to send their gift through social media. They’re also experimenting with innovative ways to connect online by creating a platform where friends can share and send in their own stories of friendship.
Friendship Socks make great gifts because:
Over 50% of generation z says it’s easier or more convenient to chat digitally. Friendship Socks allows you to send your gift entirely through the social media networks teens are glued to.
They’re all about connecting friends, and it goes being a matching pair of socks. Once your teen receives their pair, they can log into the Friendship Socks platform and share their own unique friendship stories.
By revamping the quintessential gift, Friendship Socks is on target to be the next big market disruptor.
There are two ways to give Friendship Socks; For Us and For Them. When you buy For Us, you get a pair for yourself and a unique link to send to a friend to redeem their own pair of Friendship Socks. For Them is simply that; it’s a pair of socks you can give to a friend through any social media platform you like.
A health and wellness toolkit
Available in paperback and eBooks from all the online retailers. $4.99 for eBook version and $11.65 for paperback version.
Health and wellness: Happy Healthy You is a multidisciplinary approach to reclaiming ultimate wellness. We are all so busy nowadays, and tackling all those to-do lists can leave us drained, worn down, and lacking energy. When you take a deeper look inside, you will also discover patterns, old habits, and past events blocking self-growth. Life coach extraordinaire KJ Landis helps identify how, why, and where we got stuck in the first place, and how we can utilize past trauma and drama as a springboard to becoming our most authentic, vibrant selves. As one of KJ’s students enthuses, “She has taught me several tangible strategies to cope with stress…I am using KJ’s simple techniques to achieve my lifelong health goals.'”
Stress relievers: Learn to lose the baggage and blame once and for all and step into your better self. KJ Landis herself is an exemplar of the practices she espouses. In her early career as a model, she masked years of abuse behind her beauty. Her journey to health and happiness is remarkable and truly inspiring. So many of us bury pieces of ourselves, never daring to become whole. Landis’ work offers a path to wholeness for all. The variety of healing therapies and practices makes this book unique in its contribution to the self-help and wellness world. Each day, we are faced with an immense amount of daily stress. Over time, those stressors may build up to a really big deal in our lives, causing us to go into survival mode. When you are only surviving, you are not thriving. In addition to the day-to-day sources of stress, many of us are exposed to major issues such as neglect, loneliness, abandonment issues, sexual abuse, grieving after loss, breakups, workplace challenges, environmental disasters, hormonal imbalances, and nutritional deficiencies. KJ Landis tackles all the blocks to wellness with excellent practical tools for overcoming and recovering.
Inside this book you will learn:
• the origin of how we remain “stuck” in our lives
• how to use The Negative Thought Pot to rid ourselves of self-deprecating beliefs
• how hormones and epigenetics affect mental and physical wellness
• the role of nutrition in every aspect of our health
• therapeutic movement as a modality in healing
• the power of self-care through restorative practices
• and much, much more!
Review
“For readers seeking to retool their life, KJ Landis offers soulful direction and encouragement. Whether you are under normal stress or suffering from tragedy, there is healing within yourselves. As a hospice and bereavement professional, I see tremendous value in utilizing these stories and techniques for personal thriving after loss.”
~Tracie Pyers, MSW, Medical Social Worker, Mission Hospice and Home Care
“KJ Landis’ new book is compelling, with varied exercises in each chapter to help the reader work through their problems and reach positive solutions to life’s challenges (workplace issues, sexual trauma, loss of loved ones, etc.). I found many of the exercises thought-provoking and so varied in style that anyone should be able to find at least one to match his or her comfort level.
She concludes her book by saying it is a testimony to Positive Psychology, and challenges us to use the information she provides to help us get unstuck, and then a natural flow will be available when new challenges arise. Indeed, this book serves as a bridge between real people with real problems, and real hope.”
~Pat Madden, MPH, Social Scientist Research Coordinator, Stanford University School of Medicine
“If you ever wanted a wise coach to whisper in your ear, to cheer you up when things went wrong, here’s the book for you! Happy, Healthy You! engages the reader with a personal touch, well researched strategies, and stories that inspire―a true companion book on the road of your life―that you’ll return to again and again.”
~Kate Farrell, Librarian, Author, Storyteller, President, Women’s National Book Association, San Francisco Chapter
“Inspirational, entertaining, and heartfelt are three great ways to describe KJ Landis’ latest book. In the beginning, KJ states, I do not have a perfect life, but I do have a beautiful life. You do too. This really gets the reader thinking about the positive aspects we all can choose to focus on. With each chapter, you feel as if KJ is cheering you on to greater things. She is motivating you to become yoursuperior self through realistic situations and real world exercises that can be implemented at your leisure.
KJ truly does want each of us to reach for our superior selves, and it is evident through her inspirational, fun, and heartfelt tone. Do yourself a favor, reach for your superior self, and have author and life coach KJ Landis help you along your journey. You will not regret it.”
~Suzie Roth, MLS, Research Librarian/Instructional Services Coordinator, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
“KJ Landis shows exhilarating enthusiasm for sharing how to drop destructive choices and habits, and then fully prepares the reader with healthier replacements.
Her stories, exercises, and suggestions combine good sense, warmth, wisdom, and up-to-date approaches to optimum living.”
~Melissa Riley, Self-Healing Program Coordinator, Reference Librarian, Public Library
“Having as many tools as possible in our toolbox is essential for good mental health. KJ’s book is one of those tools. She provides healthy mental exercises anyone can utilize when dealing with stressful issues and challenges that life can throw at us.”
~Kendra Coyle, LSW, Former Social Worker at Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic, Pittsburgh, PA
Review
“KJ Landis’ newest book, Happy Healthy You is a true gift. In a world which constantly focuses us on the lack, the scarcity, and the negative, she offers a physical, mental, and spiritual guide to living a healthy life from the inside out. This is a must read for anyone who is seeking a path to spiritual renewal, healthy living, and a better life. Truly, an inspirational must-read!”
~Sydney Mintz, Rabbi, Congregation Emanu-El, San Francisco

We personalize socks by the pair! Visit our website for more ideas: www.sockprints.com
In 2009, what started out as a “just for fun” idea of printing a few pairs of socks for a club soccer team has become “sockprints”, a new web-based custom sock printing business where anyone can upload a design or photo and have it printed on a variety of sock styles (silhouettes).
“Can you print on socks?” was the question from one entrepreneurial soccer mom to another who runs a successful direct to garment printing business. The first attempt was a success, but took about 30 minutes to print just one pair! The second try was much quicker using a cardboard insert specially designed to hold several pairs of socks at one time for printing. The patented process allows us to print a few pairs at a time, making it easy to print creative and original designs provided by you.
If you ever thought, “wouldn’t this look great on a pair of socks?” here is your opportunity!
The sockprints product line includes full print, no show, crew, and knee high socks. Any image that can be uploaded (png, jpeg, or pdf file) and fits into the specified dimensions will work (designs considered offensive, licensed or copyrighted cannot be printed). Logo’s, graphic designs, words, photos – the ideas are endless!

Pokémon The Sun and Moon Crimson Invasion trading cards! www.pokemon.com
FACEBOOK | YOUTUBE | TWITTER | INSTAGRAM | TUMBLR
Pokémon burst onto the video game scene in Japan back in 1996, and today, over 20 years later Pokémon continues to be a global phenomenon and one of the most successful video game franchises of all time.

The Dubliner Irish Whisky
Launched in 2015 this is a great introduction to Irish Whiskey for those looking for an approachable, smooth whiskey that works equally well on the rocks, in an Irish coffee or in a cocktail. The Dubliner is a blend of single malt and grain whiskeys, aged in the finest Bourbon oak casks which are individually selected for blending giving a warm and smooth whiskey, with a lasting finish. Perfect for a cold winters day is The Dubliner Irish Whiskey Irish Coffee:
Heat a tall stemmed glass with boiling water. Once warmed, pour out hot water, add two teaspoons of brown sugar and one cup of hot coffee, stirring until dissolved. Add 25ml The Dubliner Irish Whiskey and stir gently. Slightly whip double cream to a thicker consistency. Pour the cream from a jug over the back of a teaspoon until it reaches the rim of the glass. Garnish with 3 coffee beans.

The Dubliner Irish Whiskey & Honeycomb Liqueur
The Dubliner Master Blender was inspired to create a ‘Liquid Crunchie’ and the result is The Dubliner Irish Whiskey & Honeycomb Liqueur. This is a smooth blend of honeycomb, caramel and triple distilled Irish Whiskey which is crafted in Ireland and is an excellent addition to the Christmas drinks cabinet and great for making cocktails. A refreshing cocktail for Christmas day is The Dubliner Whiskey & Honeycomb – Dubliner Lemonade:
Pour 50ml The Dubliner Whiskey and Honeycomb Liqueur over ice in a highball glass and top with lemonade. Garnish with a wedge of lemon.

The Dublin Liberties is a premium whiskey for those looking for a more complex Irish Whiskey with depth and spirit. It is a non-chill-filtered 46% blend of malt and grain whiskies aged for many years in selected casks. It takes its name from the Liberties area of Dublin, a riotous quarter of the city known as “Hell” in the 1700s where an oak-carved devil stood watch over the entrance to The Liberties watching the mayhem happening within. This would be a brilliant present someone who wants something different this Christmas. The Old Fashioned Cocktail is back on trend, why not make it this Christmas with The Dublin Liberties Oak Devil:

Pickled Walnuts enjoying a food renaissance
According to Opies who are the only commercial producer of Pickled Walnuts in the UK, for many people, having a jar in the cupboard makes their Christmas. It’s a prerequisite. This Victorian delicacy is fast becoming a foodie must-have; especially at Christmas.
New to the Pickled Walnut revival? Their soft texture may be something of a surprise. Please get in touch to try a sample.
Available from: Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose, Ocado and speciality independent stores 390g from £2.49.
Opies Stem Ginger brings the ginger craze to the kitchen
Ginger is cool. Just ask Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint. But ginger is causing a stir in other areas too: the kitchen.
This Christmas use Opies Stem Ginger in Syrup and turn the customary Christmas Cake on its head with warmth and richness. Add a smidgen to shop-bought mincemeat, chop and add to stuffing mix for the perfect Roast Loin of Pork. Glaze a side of Roast Ham on Boxing. Don’t forget about the syrup! Splash into Christmas drinks for an indulgent spiced mulled wine or fiery mojito.
Available from: Tesco 350g RSP £2.50 and Asda 280g RSP £2.28.
Opies help to avoid a Christmas Cocktail Catastrophe
A Manhattan minus the cherry is a no-no. Gin Fizz sans a slice of lemon? A disaster. Avoid embarrassing cocktail catastrophes at Christmas with Opies’ Cocktail Cherries and Lemon Slices.
Find the cherries in the preserves or pickle aisles in most major supermarkets, priced from £1.48 for a 225g jar. The Lemon Slices should be there too £1.40 for a 350g jar.
Who are Opies – a British heritage brand
Opies is one of the oldest family owned food firms in the UK with a rich heritage and the fifth generation Mr Opie at the helm! A brief history of Opies is attached (detailing how it started by Mr Bennett Opie in 1880 who left Cornwall with five pounds in his pocket through to present day).
Avoid a Christmas Cocktail Catastrophe thanks to Opies
There’s nothing better than dusting off the cocktail shaker to create your favourite concoctions, especially at an impromptu party. But a Manhattan minus the cherry is a no-no. Gin Fizz sans a slice of lemon? A disaster. As more and more of us prefer casual get-togethers at home it’s important to avoid any embarrassing cocktail catastrophes this Christmas. It’s then that Opies’ Cocktail Cherries and Lemon Slices really come to the fore.
The vibrant colour of the cherries helps to create a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ to homemade cocktails. Try in a Singapore Sling, Shirley Temple or retro Pina Colada (don’t forget the umbrella). Cheer up a glass of Prosecco on Christmas morning or, if you have a bottle of cheap fizz that you’re unsure of a maraschino cherry makes it marvellous! It’s all down to the best-grade fruits infused in a delicious, almondy, flavoured syrup that really makes the difference. Find them in the preserves or pickle aisles in most major supermarkets, priced from £1.48 for a 225g jar.
Ensure guests have the best-dressed G&T without the hassle. Never forget the ‘slice’ again and keep a jar of Opies Lemons in the fridge. They’re more convenient and there’s less waste too. The lemons are already sliced so there’s never been an easier way to garnish the glass. Festive lurgy taken hold? Bring out the jar, pop a few slices in a mug and steep in hot water (dash of whisky optional). Be Christmas-ready and pop a jar in your trolley and it’ll be another thing ticked off the shopping list! RRP from £1.40 for a 350g jar.
Never again will you experience pre-party panic or have festive drinks failure.
Snowbomb: A twist on a Jager Bomb
Mistletoe Kiss: Made with Honey Vodka, Pineapple Juice, Creamed Coconut and Maraschino Cherry Liquor
Opies Stem Ginger brings the ginger craze to the kitchen
Ginger is cool. Just ask Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint. But ginger is causing a stir in other areas too: the kitchen.
Stem Ginger in Syrup is fast becoming a store-cupboard staple. These little balls of golden goodness are being used by home cooks to create cuisine with a spicy twist, especially at Christmas. Turn the customary Christmas Cake on its head to add warmth, richness and just the right amount of stickiness to the cake. Add a smidgen to shop-bought mincemeat to get family and friends murmuring in appreciation of your home-baked mince pies.
But it’s not all about the sweet bakes. Many overlook its versatility in savoury dishes. Why not chop and add to stuffing mix for the perfect Roast Loin of Pork? There’s nothing more impressive than a delicious side of Roast Ham on Boxing Day but a sticky ginger glaze takes it to the next level. Leftover turkey dilemma? Use ginger to make the best base for a tasty sweet and sour stir fry.
But don’t forget about the syrup! Splash into Christmas drinks for an indulgent spiced mulled wine or fiery moreish mojito.
Opies Stem Ginger in Syrup is available from Tesco 350g RSP £2.50 and Asda 280g RSP £2.28.
Pickled Walnuts enjoying a food renaissance
Like Black Forest Gateau and Arctic Roll, another food on the crest of a renaissance are Pickled Walnuts. Thanks to their popularity amongst Chefs and guest appearances on the likes of MasterChef and Saturday Kitchen this Victorian delicacy is fast becoming a foodie must-have; especially at Christmas.
According to Opies who are the only commercial producer of Pickled Walnuts in the UK, for many people, having a jar in the cupboard makes their Christmas. It’s a prerequisite. A festive seasonal supper without their favourite pickle is like scones without jam and cream. Serve as an appetising accompaniment to cold meats, cheese, antipasto and charcuterie or as a central feature to a stunning smorgasbord of tasty cold cuts. After Christmas, if there are any left, use them in pasta dishes or in warming stews and casseroles, especially with seasonal winter meats like lamb, pork and venison. For the Christmas diet detoxers, why not chop into salads or blitz with olive oil to make a flavoursome dressing?
New to the Pickled Walnut revival? Their soft texture may be something of a surprise. The nuts are picked from the trees at their absolute prime, whilst they are still green and before any shell has formed or the squirrels have invaded! Then it’s onto the delicate, time-consuming preserving method. Cooked gently by hand, hand-prepared and then left to mature in a closely-guarded secret spiced malt vinegar recipe. The outcome of this lengthy labour-of-love is a jarred jewel of unique deliciousness, that so many can’t live without.
Opies Pickled Walnuts are available from Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose, Ocado and speciality independent stores 390g from £2.49.
The Spirit of Christmas found in a wide selection of fruits
Fed up with a frozen gateau? Has your Christmas Trifle become tedious? Are the family fed-up with the same old familiar desserts? This Christmas, Opies provides a one-step solution to revamp your repertoire of festive puddings – fruits with alcohol. This year the range includes two new varieties that will tempt the foodie trendsetters: Blackberries with Gin and Pears with Port.
The new blackberry variety takes the most traditional English fruits, which are gently infused with one of the on-trend British spirits, London Dry Gin. Opies recommend using them as an ingredient for Christmas cocktails such as Blackberry Bramble or Blackberry Basil Mojito. If you fancy an indulgent start to Christmas morning, serve with a stack of pancakes and fresh cream. Delicious! If the mood takes you, you can always eat them straight from the jar!
For a simple Christmas party crowd-pleaser Opies have created a quick and easy take on classic poached pears. Spend less time in the kitchen and simply open a jar instead – you won’t be disappointed. Marinated with a young ruby port which, thanks to the port’s strong fruit flavour complements the Pears perfectly, these are exquisite served with cream or vanilla ice cream. Who would have thought making a dessert could be so easy!
Opies’ extensive range of preserved fruits with alcohol will turn simple sweets into magnificent creations in minutes. As well as the Blackberries with Gin and Pears with Port the Opies’ range comprises Christmas Fruits with Courvoisier, Stem Ginger with Famous Grouse, Peaches with Courvoisier, Apricots with Grand Marnier, Baby Pears with Amaretto, Black Cherries with Kirsch and Ginger with Teachers Whisky. These store cupboard Christmas stalwarts provide a quick catering solution when served with meringue, cream or ice cream. Why not try making a boozy Boxing Day Trifle this year? There’s nothing better than trifle sponge soaked with Gin or Kirsch accompanied by fruit marinated in the same spirit. If you’re stuck for Christmas gift ideas for foodie friends, Opies fruits with alcohol make great stocking fillers or small hamper gifts too.
The new Blackberries with Gin and Pears with Port will be exclusively available at Waitrose and Ocado. RRP £11.99.
Bennett Opie Limited
In 1880, young Cornishman Bennett Opie set off to make his fortune in London with just a few pounds in his pocket. He started by selling eggs and bacon and gradually, with the help of his two brothers, successfully built the business even receiving a Royal Warrant for supplying the Royal Household. In 1912 Bennett Opie was joined by his son William and it was at this time that Bennett Opie Limited was founded.
William Opie had great foresight. When supplies of fresh eggs were limited during the First World War he recognised the opportunity to manufacture and supply liquid eggs to the bakery trade. It was following a trip to France that he spotted an opportunity to diversify into preserving cherries and was keen to provide a less expensive alternative to the popular but pricy French brands. In 1929, the company relocated to Sittingbourne, Kent – the heart of Kent’s cherry-growing region. The site, which is close to King Henry VIII’s cherry orchards, benefits from natural springs; the water from which is still used today. This move marked the start of a growing range of preserves and pickles.
Today, the Opies brand includes a wide selection of cocktail products which still includes Cocktail Cherries along with Sliced Lemons, Cocktail Onions and Cocktail Gherkins. The Opies retail range is particularly strong in the home-baking sector, packing ginger for the majority of the major supermarkets as well as Opies Stem Ginger in Syrup and Crystallised Ginger. In keeping with the heritage and provenance of the brand, Opies range extends to traditional chutneys, an extensive range of preserved fruits in alcohol and luxury fruit compotes.
The signature line, however, is Pickled Walnuts, with Opies remaining the only commercial producer of this classic Victorian delicacy. Working with farmers across the UK and Europe, walnuts are picked whilst still green and before any shell has formed. They are then immediately preserved before being transported back to the factory where they are cooked, hand prepared and then preserved in a secret-recipe spiced vinegar.
The Opies range is readily available from the major retailers across the UK and is also popular overseas, with the firm in receipt of the Queen’s Award for Export.
Today the business is in its fifth generation, still owned by the Opie family, making it one of the oldest private family-owned food companies in the UK.
Bennett Opie Limited is also the sole distributor for a selection of high-quality agency food brands that include Monin, Lingham’s Chilli Sauce, Barry Norman Pickled Onions, Ferns Curry Pastes, Delice du Provence and Clément Faugier chestnuts.
– Opies has a wealth of archive material: from an insurance policy against First World War bomb damage to a set of old accounts.
– Press Visits to the head office at Sittingbourne are welcome, where journalists can have a behind the scenes tour and immerse themselves in Opies’ history, view things like original cherry stoners, wooden clogs used by workers and bygone packaging.

Nineteen 87 enters centre stage as the leader in premium pet nutrition, a welcome addition to the posh puppy’s menu www.nineteen87.co.uk
FACEBOOK | INSTAGRAM
What is it?
Nineteen 87 is a dog product primarily concerned with the nutrition and quality of its ingredients, production and transportation. Its raw materials are reliably sourced and transferred from the farm to the bowl with as little in-between fuss as possible. The food is created through continuous baking, a technique heralded as the purest cooking process available for pet food, and as a result of such is sure to set your doggy’s tail wagging whilst keeping the grumbles out of his tummy and his health happy.
Why the name?
The man behind the movement is none other than Graham Wheeler, a real-life Willy Wonka for pets having honed his knowledge since entering the industry in, you guessed it, 1987. Graham has led the front in developing the best quality baked treats near his home in north Wales and now, in Nineteen 87, Graham has developed a taste sensation that dogs are already desperate for more of after a few lucky dogs got first paws on them at the launch in London in September.
How does it work?
Graham has always supported traditional baking methods that utilises the Maillard process to create an additional crunch and gives the browning colouring and in order to allow for increased volumes, his team will use tray ovens for Nineteen 87. These are slowly baked on a conveyor on multiple levels in the oven expose the food to gas fire burners and hot air in order to maximise the product’s exposure to heat whilst controlling the pressure. Graham explains that manufacturers who cook under pressure “have to add artificial flavouring and additives to the food which often comes from meat products broken down by enzymes. With baking, all of this is avoided. Natural flavours and textures are embraced from the beginning, and preservatives are only added due to natural moisture levels.” Basically, baking keeps the food fresh, fluffy and free of naughty nasties!
What is in it?
According to Wheeler, a product is only as good as what goes into it, and with their roughly 1,700 taste buds we’re sure the pups agree. By knowing which farms the ingredients come from and tracing every step, Graham is confident in their quality and provenance. It also means the chain is short and so freshness adds to the quality. With 50% fresh meat, limited core ingredients and plenty of botanicals and natural goodness, Nineteen 87 is a complete food that delivers all a dog needs.
Why is it special?
“Nineteen 87 aims to provide pet owners trust in their pet’s nutrition by understanding first-hand what goes into the production. We combine historic excellence with focus and passion, and some innovative thinking to provide what will be a highly sought after premium product.” – Graham Wheeler.

A Dreamlines wedding dress sketch is created with detail and style that emulates the magic of her princess dress. More than likely her wedding dress is stored away in a sealed box, stuffed away in the back of the closet or maybe even donated.
Whether you need an anniversary gift, wedding gift or Christmas gift it is all about making her gift personalized. A personalized sketch of her wedding dress with a personalized hanger sketch with her first name, Mrs. last name or your wedding date is lovely.
For the wedding day gift from you more than likely you will not have seen her dress until you say “I Do”, so to open up the sketch together seeing her wedding dress, your suit and the personalized hanger is one of the purest and most romantic moments you will share that day.
If you are wanting the most perfect anniversary gift then focusing on the tradition for that year makes your gift have more of a focus. The one year anniversary gift is paper, two year anniversary gift is cotton, three year anniversary gift is leather and so on. With a sketch we can help you with any year; paper for the sketch, cotton mat for the frame or a leather frame.
Giving her the most perfect Christmas gift embracing being husband and wife is a perfect gift she will love and what better way to say I love you than with something from your wedding day.
This find has been an all time favorite and cherished by wives all over the world, from their husbands. We also love how Dreamlines can create this gift even when we wait to the last minute. You guys know what I’m talking about. Check out Dreamlines here www.MyDreamlines.com.

Photo Gifts have been well established as top gifts year after year. In a growing photo gift industry, leaders are constantly innovating and fighting for exposure. It’s only a matter of time before Augmented Reality steps in to marry print and AR. Canvas Print company “Print Pictures” makes a first move by putting augmented reality into the hands of canvas print and photo gift customers.
Finally, augmented reality everyone can use
Canvas Prints. Whether you’ve given or received, more likely than not there’s a photo on canvas hanging somewhere in your home. And with a plethora of companies offering such photo gifts…it’s no wonder the photo gift industry accounts for over $2 billion in revenue annually.
So, what does the future look like for Online Photo Printing? There is no doubt that it will involve greater interactivity with photos, adding motion and sound. Augmented reality technology advances have allowed companies to embed videos inside a printed photograph. Companies such as LifePrint, who raised $209,515 on Kickstarter and Prynt who raised over $1.5 million on the same platform, both sell a mini-printer to print still images of a video and when scanned with their APP, will unveil the video in which the still was taken from. For $125 and $150 respectively, it might be more than you’d spend on your aunt for a Christmas gift. Check out www.lifeprintphotos.com and www.prynt.co for more information.
Canvas Print company “Print Pictures” is making augmented reality more giftable and affordable. They call it Live Canvas. “When the canvas print is scanned with our app, the augmented reality video is revealed through the phone or device”, says head of marketing, Paula Michaels.
After a customized canvas print is purchased from Print Pictures, the customer will be prompted to upload a video to digitally connect to their canvas print picture. When received in the mail, it can be scanned with the app to bring the image to life.
“It’s the future of visual storytelling”, says Paula, “someday photos alone might no longer by the preferred media type people use to share memories. Online Photo Printing will continue to become more interactive. Augmented reality canvas prints bring your walls to life, and this is just the beginning”.
Augmented Reality Canvas Prints, “Live Canvas”, can be experienced at www.print.pictures for U.K. customers and at www.printpictures.us for U.S. and Canada.
“Why get an ordinary canvas print” asks Paula, “when you can have a LIVE canvas print with augmented reality for the same price?”
Print Pictures ‘Live Canvas’ Prints start at about $7.
