House and home gifts
A painting of the house, made from your photo
Turn a photo of a house into a painting, then have it printed and shipped — a framed canvas that arrives ready to hang, a canvas, a framed poster, or a print you frame yourself. Previewing it on a wall costs nothing.
You see it before you buy it. Generating your painting and previewing it on a wall are free, with no account. Don’t like it? Describe it differently and try again — previewing costs nothing. Nothing here is bought sight-unseen.
Framed canvas from $59, canvas from $29, framed poster from $49, poster from $19 — all with free US shipping. Or take just the high-resolution file for $4.99.
The photo, and what came back
The pairs below are real photographs of houses put through this product, captioned with the exact instruction that produced them. They are licensed stock photos we transformed ourselves, not a customer’s home.

From customers
“The whole process was really smooth, and the quality of the print and frame is awesome. I gave it to my mentor, and it’s already sitting on his desk.”
“The canvas looks good, captured key elements while providing the canvas painting look.”
How it works
Step 1
Upload a photo of the house
A straight-on or three-quarter view works best. From your phone, a camera, or an old real-estate photo.
Step 2
Describe the painting
In plain words: an oil painting, a soft watercolor, an ink sketch. Ask for changes too — leave out a parked car, a trash bin, a power line.
Step 3
Preview it on a wall
See it hanging in a room before you spend anything.
Step 4
Frame it or download it
Order a framed canvas, a canvas, a framed poster, or a poster with free US shipping — or buy the high-resolution file and print it locally.
What a house piece can be
A first home
The house you just closed on, painted from the photo you took the day you got the keys — or from the listing photo, if that's all you have.
A childhood home
The house a family grew up in, whether or not it still belongs to them. An old photo painted while it still means something.
A realtor closing gift
A painting of the house someone just bought, given at closing — a photo means more than a bottle of wine.
The family home, before or after it's sold
A record of the house as it was, made before it changes hands or changes hands again.

Questions
What photo of the house works best?
A straight-on or three-quarter view, in decent light, where the house isn't blocked by cars or trees. Old real-estate photos and phone snapshots both work -- it doesn't need to be professional.
Can you leave out the cars, trash bins, or power lines?
Yes. Say what you want left out when you describe the painting -- a parked car, a trash bin, a power line, a sign. The transformation follows plain words, the same way it can remove anything else from a photo.
Can it show a season that isn't in the photo -- autumn colors, snow?
Yes, describe it and it follows: summer green, autumn gold, snow on the ground. The house itself stays accurate; the season is a style choice like any other.
What's this good for -- housewarmings, realtor gifts, something else?
Housewarmings and first homes, a gift from a realtor at closing, the family home before or after it's sold, a childhood house or a grandparent's farm that doesn't belong to the family anymore. Any house that means something to someone.
Can it ship straight to them, or do I need to receive it first?
Either works. Checkout collects the shipping address, so you can send it straight to them at a US address. Select “This is a gift” at checkout to add a note — it’s printed on the packing slip, and no prices appear on the slip either way. If you’d rather hand it over yourself, ship it to you. If it arrives damaged or misprinted, reply to your order confirmation within 30 days of delivery with a photo and it’s replaced or refunded — they won’t need to send anything back.
Can I see it before I pay?
Yes. Uploading a photo, generating the painting, and previewing it on a wall are all free and need no account. You only pay if you decide to order a print or buy the digital file.
Is it AI-generated?
Yes. Your photo and your instructions guide an AI image model, and the result is finished at high resolution for printing. We say so everywhere we sell, because you should know what you're buying.
