What are floating frames?
Good question, we love to explain it.
Floating frames were traditionally used to transport precious paintings. The canvas was placed in the "bin" with some space, so that the painting could not be damaged quickly during transport. Incidentally, this was at a time when the frames of artworks became the art themselves. Golden, silver and showy frames added some style to the paintings. They had not heard of minimalism yet :)
In the current transport packaging for valuable works of art you still recognize this form. Somewhere in history apparently someone thought it was wonderful to leave the "bin" around the painting and to hang it on the wall. And we share this opinion completely! The canvas print seems to float in the frame and this gives a beautiful spatial effect. The photo on canvas print is framed nicely, it stands out beautifully and is an eyecatcher on the wall! We supply our floating frames in three colors: black, white and bare wood. A floating frame for your canvas print is definitely worth a try. You will be amazed by the result!

Read reviewGreat quality and price
We ordered 6 hexagon prints about 3 years ago via a fb advert. Really really pleased with them, they've stayed in place, no fade whatsoever despite being in the full sun by a huge window. Just ordered 4 more to go with them.

Read reviewBrilliant company with excellent customer service.
I searched through many companies, and became very frustrated with how bad they were at allowing me to get the design I wanted and needed. I stumbled over HelloCanvas, before realising that my sister uses them frequently. Their site was amazingly simple and intuitive. It allowed me to do exactly what I wanted. And then I learned that they had all sorts of innovative ways of displaying my photos, such as hexagonal, circle shapes etc. With their magnetic system of attaching to walls. What really made my day was the way a guy called Nick helped me when I needed to call for several reasons. Without skipping a beat he calmly helped me in every area. Even when I changed my mind the next day, he never once showed any impatience toward me. (At least he didn't on the phone :-)) Overall, I will only ever use this company moving forward. Brilliant, brilliant company.
