Inkdot is a company based out of Chicago, Illinois that is able to take images shared on social media or captured digitally and turn them into works of art to be displayed in your home. Where Inkdot stands out is rather than printing photos onto paper, they're able to actually embed images into the very fiber of the wood itself by using a proprietary gas ink fusion.
The wooden photo prints are long-lasting and ready to be displayed upon arrival, and each submitted photo is also reviewed by a team of designers to help insure the image will look good upon transfer to a wooden canvas.
