The story
About this print
Your favourite photograph paired with your first dance lyrics, laid out in the shape of a vinyl record and printed on handmade sustainable paper. Upload your photo, add the song, your names and your date. A paper first anniversary gift that keeps both the picture and the words.
Our bespoke float mounted frame is designed specifically to show off the handmade deckled edges of the print. The artwork is float mounted onto the backing board and set inside a solid FSC wood gallery frame, so the torn edges and the depth of the cotton paper stay visible.
Printed in-house in the UK on 100% sustainable cotton rag paper with a genuine deckled edge. Made to order, carefully packed and dispatched with tracked delivery.
FAQs
01. Do I need to type out the lyrics?
No. Enter the song title and artist and we find the lyrics. If you want a particular version, such as a cover, add the lyrics you want in the special instructions at checkout.
02. Can I use our own words, like vows or a speech?
Yes. Type "custom text" in the song title and artist box, then add your words in the special instructions at checkout, or email them to hello@blimandblum.com with your order number as the subject.
03. Can I have just the chorus or part of the song?
Yes. Add a note at checkout with the part you would like.
04. What if our song is very long?
We reduce the text size so the whole song fits. For a long song, a larger print size keeps it easy to read.
05. What can I personalise?
When you order, fill in title, song title & artist, names and date. Upload your photo on the page.
06. Can you change the colours, wording or font?
Yes. We design every print in-house, so we can change the colours, wording or font. Add a note at checkout, or email hello@blimandblum.com before you order.
07. Can I see a proof before it is printed?
If you would like to check it first, choose "Yes please" under Proof Required? when ordering. We email you a proof within 24 hours and only print once you approve it, and you can ask for changes at that stage. A proof adds about 1 business day. Without it, we print as soon as it is ready.
08. Is the size the print or the frame?
The size listed is the print. The frame sits around it, so a framed piece is a little larger overall.
09. What frame options are there?
You can order it unframed, or framed in black gallery wood or white gallery wood.
10. Is the frame glazed?
Yes, with cast acrylic: clear, light and much safer to ship than glass. If you would like a different glazing, such as low-reflection, contact us before ordering.
11. Does it arrive ready to hang?
Yes. Framed prints are professionally framed and arrive ready to hang. Unframed prints are sent flat if they are small, or rolled if they are large.
12. What paper is it printed on?
Thick 310gsm archival cotton-rag paper, rated for a print life of more than 85 years.
13. How long does delivery take?
Every print is made to order and dispatched tracked. Please order in good time before your occasion. Live delivery timings are shown at checkout.
What makes it special
Our unique float frames use wood mouldings manufactured in Italy and assembled by hand in our studio in London, UK. The deckled edge print is then float mounted and presented in the frame to create the effect.
