It’s possible that some of you did not know that Yardlover.com has tons of  paintings meant to be used outside.  I didn’t even know about them until I stumbled across them just a few days ago.  And let me just say, some of them are really pretty!  It was really quite a shock to find all of those paintings on our site because I just didn’t expect it.  I recommend that you just take a look around and see if anything catches your eye.  I bet at least one will.

The thing about these paintings though, is that they’re not really paintings.  They are specially made to look like paintings, but in fact the images are generated from high resolution digital photographs and printed onto the canvas to give the allusion of an original painting.  The canvases are treated front and back with UV lacquer to help the image keep its amazing and vivid color.  The prints are 100% waterproof and the staples are stainless steel, meaning they will not rust.  The canvas is stretched around a 1.5″ poly-vinyl bar made to withstand the outdoor elements.  Last but not least, the specialty made mounting hardware ensures that the “painting” will stay right where it is in up to 60 mph winds (anything higher than that, you probably want to move it indoors).  Just to make these images even better, a 2-year guarantee against peeling, running, or fading is included.

For those of you who don’t live on the edge or enjoy getting caught up in the wild world of outdoor decor, these “paintings” can also be used indoors.  But where’s the fun in that?

Take a look and see if there’s anything that floats your boat:

*Just a bit of extra information:  these “paintings” are actually a lot bigger than they appear.  They are all 30″ x 40″ x 1.5″ so don’t go in thinking that you are getting a little painting you can hang in that little corner of your house between the window and the door (unless of course it will actually fit there) because they are bigger than they seem.  Just sayin’.
