Six Christmas gift ideas they’ll actually keep
Why art beats another pair of socks
Most Christmas presents are forgotten by February. A painting is different — it hangs on their wall for decades, and every December they’ll remember who gave it to them. Whether it’s a hand-painted reproduction of the artist they’ve always loved, a canvas print of a place that means something, or a custom portrait painted from a favourite photo, art is the rare gift that gets more valuable with time.
A note on timing: our paintings are 100% hand-painted to order, so they take several weeks to create — order early for guaranteed delivery before Christmas. Canvas prints are faster, and if the calendar has beaten you, a Direct Art gift card is emailed within minutes — you can even buy it on Christmas morning and have it in their inbox before the wrapping paper settles.
Left it late? You’re covered.
A Direct Art gift card is delivered by email in minutes — add a personal message, schedule it for Christmas morning, and let them choose from over 5,000 artworks in the January quiet.

When should I order for Christmas delivery?
Hand-painted artworks are made to order and take several weeks — the earlier the better. Canvas prints are quicker. If you’re unsure whether there’s time, contact our team and we’ll confirm before you order.
What if I’ve left it too late?
A gift card arrives by email within minutes of purchase — even on Christmas Day — with your personal message attached. It never expires, so they can take their time choosing.
Can I send it directly to them with a message?
Yes. On the gift card page, choose “Recipient’s email”, add their name and your message, and pick the exact day it arrives.
