"Cynical, money grubbing opportunists"
Another way to fleece parents/grandparents for shoddy work. A company that is making a fortune from producing sub-standard tat by cynically worming its way into education and showing schools yet another way to extort money by guilt tripping parents/grandparents.
Reason for this review: Cards arrived with part of greeting chopped off. Email and phone call to explain and was told problem would be rectified. 3 days before Christmas replacements cards arrived. Wrong child, wrong school, wrong city. How do we explain to a 5 year old child that he wont be able to give his artwork to relatives and friends? A bunch of cynical, money grubbing shysters exploiting young children to line their own pockets while pretending to offer a 'service' to schools.

"Great use of images for different products"
Our daughter's school use this company every year at Christmas time. The cards are lovely but I also love the wrapping paper and gift tags. This year we expanded further and tried the mug, absolutely lovely. I've just gone back to order more they are so good.
Thank you Art Projects for School.

"Quality Control?"
I’m not sure how the mugs made it through QC, or who thought it would be a good idea to tile the photograph image. This product is clearly designed to be given as a present, the image is reduced to such an extent that you can see neither the design nor my child’s face.

"Mug design is a letdown"
The reproduction of my child’s art & photograph on the Christmas cards was ok, somewhat blurry with her Happy Christmas message a bit clipped, which suggests that there was a bit of a problem in scanning. The real disappointment is with the mugs: it was not made clear that the image would be reduced and tiled: no aspect of the artwork or my child’s photo can be seen. Quite a surprise: not a good way of reproducing the image on a mug if the point is to be able to see that the child is in the photo. Unfortunately we won’t be giving these to family as gifts.

We have used APFS for a number of years and they have always been wonderfully efficient as well as flexible to our needs! The artwork is well produced and the process well explained with lots of helpful resources!

"Good idea but poorly executed."
Good idea but poorly executed.
I ordered Christmas cards and smaller cards for attaching to presents from this company. The ONLY reason I ordered them was the novelty value of my child being able to send Christmas cards to people with their own drawing professionally printed on the front.
Unfortunately, what I received was worse than what we could have printed ourselves. The image wasn't centred, it was right-justified, leaving all this white space on the left-hand side of the card. The card itself is not particularly weighty or good quality (thought it is from a sustainable source) and the overall impression is rather cheap. We would have got a better end result scanning and printing the image ourselves. Wouldn't recommend.

"I don’t recommend"
I was happy to order 3 mugs for me, wife and son , of course because they printed my son drawing. I have a lot of mugs home, I didn’t need , I needed only because of the drawers( and thinking i help the school, some percentage gone to school, I don’t know) and I received 3 mugs and each have 30 times that draws, A4 pictures lower and printed 30 times on each mug. I don’t want to use strong words but i need magnifying glasses to see the drawing

"Awful mugs"
After ordering cards and a mug, we were really happy with the cards and thought they were beautiful. There was a slight delay on the mug which was fine with us, we were happy to wait a little longer and after receiving the cards were really excited to see the mug. Oh my were we disappointed!
The images that were printed on the mug are so small that you cannot see them. So much of the top of the image was cut off that you could not see all of the words "Merry Christmas", and to top it off the images were printed at an angle and not straight at all. Awful quality, i cannot believe they have been sent out like that. I now have one very disappointed child.

"Absolutely disgusted at the mug I…"
Absolutely disgusted at the mug I received.you couldn't see the drawing my daughter made and what slight wrap look it had was lop sided.The worst item I have ever spent money on and to top it off they haven't replied to my email! This was meant to be a gift..will now be going in the bin!
