Printful has been there since day one
My partner and I started Gay Pride Apparel in 2019 as a side business. After a year and a half, we quit our day jobs and decided to focus on our store full time. Printful has been there since day one. They have been our best partner by far.

Frequently asked questions
A giclée print is a high-resolution reproduction of an original artwork or photograph. It’s produced using professional Epson inkjet printers with water-based pigment inks and archival-quality materials, resulting in rich colours, smooth gradients, and long-lasting vibrancy.
Upload your files to Printful’s artwork printing service using the Design Maker. Create professional print-on-demand art prints in just a few steps. Choose your preferred format (canvas, framed, or unframed), select the size, and we’ll handle the rest.
We use giclée fine art printing to ensure your prints stay true to their original uniqueness and quality.
Selling art prints online with Printful is quick and straightforward. Our giclée print-on-demand model is designed for artists and creators of all levels, from beginners to established sellers.
Get started in three simple steps:
1. Choose your products – Select from premium paper or canvas options, all produced using giclée fine art printing.
2. Upload your designs – Add your artwork, photography, or illustrations. Our printers reproduce your designs using the CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) colour profile for sharp, accurate results.
3. Start selling – Launch your online shop and let Printful handle production and worldwide shipping. There’s no upfront cost or inventory to manage.
Our custom wall art starts from £5.50 (excluding VAT). Prices vary by product type and size, and shipping costs are calculated separately.
For exact pricing, check the individual product pages in our Catalog.
The texture of your final print depends on the material you choose. Our matte paper has a smooth, non-reflective finish, while our premium luster paper offers a slight sheen and subtle texture. We also offer canvas prints with a more pronounced woven texture.
All options are suitable for detailed, high-quality art reproductions.
Our giclée fine art prints are produced on enhanced matte paper and premium luster photo paper. Both options are pH-neutral, acid-free, and fade-resistant, helping to preserve colour and detail over time.
These materials are specifically chosen for their compatibility with water-based pigment inks and their ability to deliver long-lasting, high-quality results.
Glossy photo prints are ideal for vibrant, colourful images, as their reflective surface enhances brightness and contrast. Matte finishes are better suited to fine art prints and illustrations, as they reduce glare and highlight subtle details.
Both options are printed using archival-quality, water-based pigment inks to ensure excellent colour accuracy and long-lasting durability.
