Anywhere to get custom canvas prints in Malaga?

Postby johnr » Sun May 17, 2015 12:01 pm

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a place that makes canvas prints on demand from a file? Ideally 'while you wait' (or at least within a few hours/same day) ? It's the sort of thing that's everywhere in the UK but I can't think of one here but I'm sure I've seen one somewhere (El Ingenio/Rincon shopping centre etc) ?

Thanks
John

Try Fotolab, there's a shop in Miramar (ground floor): http://www.fotolabs.es/

Thanks Ama. If anyone knows one a bit nearer to Velez that'd be great but if not at least I have somewhere.

Photo shops in nerja do canvas prints. one that comes to mind is if you walk up pintada to the statue where the road comes round and turn left there. theres a photo shop about ten yrds away on the right. they do canvas prints

Yes you did see one in El Ingenio but it isn't there any more.
I think there is one in the Rincon de la Victoria shopping centre.
I'll pop in there tomorrow and have a look if I get time.
Cheers

Thanks Elusive

Gerry - thanks, glad I'm not going totally mad, I was sure I'd seen one there once! I've got to drive to Malaga tomorrow anyway, so I'll call into Rincon on the way so no need to go out of your way to check but thanks very much for the offer.

For future reference for others...

I gave up on the idea of a canvas and decided to get a print done and frame it.

I tried a few places but some couldn't do the size I wanted, some were going to take a week, and most had closed down.

In the end I used Copicentro. They have several shops including one in Velez which is handy for me. I took the file in Monday, it was ready Tuesday evening although too late to collect until today. Just under 7 euro.

They also do canvas prints too though.

This is the print I got

I'm not happy with the frame (I bought it separately) - cheap plastic and reflective (both the frame and the 'glass') so going to replace it when I find a better one later this week. I just couldn't wait to put it up ;)
