Today's surprise makeover was in Eltham, South London. The exciting mayhem that is the 60 Minute Makeover team whirl-wind decorated the walls using six canvas prints from the canvasRus galleries.

Transforming this tired and outdated semi into a beautiful and sophisticated Art Deco inspired home for John and his family was the job of the 60 Minute Makeover team and designer Richard Randall. Canvas pictures were spotted around the living room, dining room and the girl's bedroom.

Downstairs we saw Leaf, Cocoa Bloom 1 and Floral gallery. Each of these pieces of artwork were purposely tied into Richard's design scheme by their soft sepia tones. To give that glamorous finishing touch to the girl's bedroom canvasRus were asked for New York Cab and The City gallery images, both of which were changed into black and white canvas prints.

Today's show was a very daring transformation using shocking pinks against blacks, lots of textures giving depth and interest to small spaces and the added bonus of iconic pieces of furniture. Richard's choices of canvasRus' contemporary canvas artwork around the home had been carefully considered to either soften or enhance particular looks.

The 60 Minute Makeover team were in Llandrindod Wells today creating a bright and cheerful home for the Evans family including personal photos onto canvas and Mocha Twirl from the Abstract gallery.

The tragic story of the Evans’ suddenly losing a loving father and husband meant transforming eight of their treasured family photographs into canvas pictures would add that extra touch of sentiment to John Amabile’s makeover.

Luke, the son’s, bedroom held a collection of the photos to canvas on top of his wardrobe. Each of these canvas photos had been requested from CanvasRus as sepia prints so that they’d tie in with the pale blue and chocolate of the colour scheme.

The effect on Luke and his mother when they looked around his bedroom for the first time and saw the photographic prints on canvas was highly emotional. Recognising his Mum and Dad in one of them brought tears to his eyes and a cuddle from Mum.

Yet another successful makeover for the 60 Minute team.

Today's designer on 60 Minute Makeover, Julia Randall, decided to make a feature wall in the living room of 11 photos onto canvas.

These were old family photos that were all harmonised and changed to sepia. The special effect was created by Julia herself, but the canvases were printed by CanvasRus.

What a great way of bringing those old family photos back to life - display them as canvas prints!

Today's surprise 60 Minute Makeover was filmed in Ashton-under-Lyne and used three pieces of canvasRus digitally printed wall art.

Mocha Flora 2, from the online Floral Gallery, was hung in the master bedroom which was decorated in sumptuous greens, caramels and chocolate colours. The sophisticated heavy golden silk curtains reflected the warm sepia colouring of the canvas art on the wall.

Cocoa Bloom 1, again from the Floral Gallery, and Red Polka, from the Contemporary Gallery, were both hung in the kitchen against the lovely pale green painted walls.

One of John Amabile's brighter and bolder design schemes that accessorised beautifully with CanvasRus canvas prints.

CanvasRus is proud to announce that they’ve supplied digitally printed canvas artwork to the show Britain’s Next Top Model for the second year running.

Britain’s Next Top Model starts on Living TV – Mon 21st April at 9pm

Let the excitement begin!

CanvasRus is back on our TV screens as the main canvas art supplier to series five of 60 Minute Makeover. We’ve supplied 46 of the 70 makeovers which make up this new series. The episodes include every canvas product we have available online. These range from the ever popular personal Photos onto Canvas, large Multiple Tiled Canvases (one image separated over any number of canvas blocks), Gallery images and our famous Pop Art effects.

If you’re not familiar with the program each show’s a surprise makeover for a deserving family member. It’s 60 minutes of chaotic fast paced fun presented by the glamorous Terri Dwyer one of the original cast members of Hollyoaks. The emotional reaction to the home’s transformation always makes good viewing; and the realisation that one or more of the family’s treasured photos has been stylishly recreated into canvas art adds a great sentimental touch.

Each episode we’ve supplied with wall art shows not only the visual impact one of our canvases can make in a room but also the quality of the canvas prints produced. It would be very easy for us make exaggerated claims about the quality of our products but the shows consistent and unabashed close ups of our artwork proves not only their popularity but also the beautiful finish the interior designers can rely on. Every digital canvas print we make is individually produced, hand stretched and quality checked. It is a service that distinguishes us and that we take great pride in.

60 Minute Makeover is on at roughly 2pm every weekday through until May.

This is the fifth year we’ve helped with 60mm who are currently in production of series 6. If you’d like to surprise someone special with a visit from the 60 Minute Makeover team click on http://www.itv.co.uk/60mm/ to apply.

We're excited to announce that on Friday's show (23rd Mar 07) This Morning is filming a collection of five CanvasRus canvases; all very special photographs that they have carefully chosen.

Each canvas print has been created using Your Photos service. Four of the images have been beautifully changed into contemporary soft sepia. These were uploaded as digital photographs. The final photo has been accurately recreated as it is due to its gorgeous colouring. This photo was an emailed scanned print.

Creating personalised wall art with photos onto canvas is becoming increasingly popular. CanvasRus dispel the myth of its complexity by offering an easy to use four step service which is affordable and a great photo gift for friends and family.
