Frequently Asked Questions

What should I include on a first-time grandparent canvas?

Most-requested elements: (1) the names or nicknames the new grandparents will go by (Grandma, Nana, Mimi, Gigi, Grandpa, Papa, Pop, Pappy, Bompa, etc.), (2) the baby's expected arrival date, (3) the announcement line ("Promoted to Grandma — Coming January 2027"), (4) optional ultrasound photo or baby silhouette, and (5) optional tribute line like "You raised an amazing parent." For gender reveals, we add pink/blue accents or "It's a [boy/girl]" reveal text.

How does the pregnancy reveal moment work — do they open the canvas?

Yes. The most viral pregnancy reveals on TikTok and Instagram involve giving the soon-to-be grandparents a wrapped gift — they unwrap it, see "Promoted to Grandma" with their name and the arrival date, and have an immediate emotional reaction caught on camera. The 16x20 size works best for this because it's substantial enough to feel like a major reveal but small enough to wrap nicely.

How long does it take to ship a first-time grandparent canvas?

Production takes 3-5 business days plus 3-5 days shipping in the US. For specific reveal dates (Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, gender reveal parties, etc.), order at least 10 days in advance. Expedited shipping available at checkout — most orders deliver in 5-7 days total.

Can this be customized for the great-grandparent announcement too?

Yes. "Promoted to Great-Grandma / Great-Grandpa" canvases are some of our most emotional pieces — especially when the great-grandparent is in their 80s or 90s and the baby will be their first great-grandchild. We can also create combined canvases for both sets of grandparents (paternal and maternal) on one piece. Specify the family structure in your order notes.
