What photo quality works best for an acrylic photo block?

High-resolution images print sharpest. We recommend at least 2 MP for the 2 x 2 and 4 x 4 sizes and 4 MP or higher for the 4 x 6 and 6 x 6. Clear subjects, good lighting, and clean backgrounds produce the most striking result. Heavily filtered or screenshot-quality photos lose detail in a block format. Our photo resolution guide explains how to check resolution before you order.

How long does a custom acrylic photo block take to ship?

Manufacturing takes 2 to 5 business days after checkout. Each block is UV-printed, polished, and scratch-proof packaged before leaving our facility. Standard shipping is 2 to 8 business days. Express shipping is available at checkout for faster delivery.

Can I return a custom acrylic photo block?

Because every block is made from your personal photo, we can't accept returns on a change of mind. If the block arrives damaged, doesn't match the photo you uploaded, or has a production fault, message us at support@giftenova.com within 7 days of delivery and we'll remake or refund it.

Why choose an acrylic photo block over a framed photo?

Acrylic blocks print directly onto the material and create a subtle 3D depth that framed photos can't match. Light passes through the acrylic, color looks more saturated, and the block sits freestanding without a frame or a wall nail. They are also harder to damage, easier to dust, and more gift-ready than a framed print you'd still have to hang.

Turn a single photo into a desk-sized keepsake that catches every lamp in the room. Our acrylic photo blocks capture your image in crystal-clear acrylic with a subtle 3D depth effect. Each block is polished on all six sides, sits flat on its own edge, and reads beautifully from any angle: unbox it, place it, and your memory is already on display.

Acrylic photo blocks are freestanding displays for a desk, shelf, or mantel, so they need no wall mount or frame. If you would rather hang your photo on a wall, see our canvas and tempered glass wall prints.
