Some addresses stay with them long after they've moved out. Turn the house itself into art, a personalised pencil house portrait on a soft stone background. Made for new home gifts, housewarmings, moving gifts and Christmas.

Details

The place they call home, turned into art

Send us a photo of the house they've just got the keys to, or the one they grew up in, and we'll turn it into a portrait of the house.

Created from your photo

Upload a photo of the house as you personalise; a quick one from the pavement is fine. Extra photos help with small details or other angles. No photo? Send a Google Street View screenshot, or email the address to support@letterfest.com and we'll find it. You can leave a note with your order for anything you'd like added or changed.

Lovely House Pencil Sketch

Sketch turned out better than expected. I sent a separate email to customer service asking for the windows to be drawn different from 1st photo and more like 2nd photo. They did what I asked. Ordered sketch without a frame, as it was a housewarmings gift. I thought they could pick their own frame colour. Also had residence name and address put on it. Very happy with it.

I ordered this picture for a friend who was returning to his native New Zealand after living in the UK for 30 years. The house was the one he had lived in for a considerable number of years and had many memories for him. He was delighted to receive a unique memory of his time here to take back home.

Wonderful wedding gift!

I bought a sketch of my sister's wedding venue as a gift. It was beautiful and my sister loved it! The sketch was a very high quality, well framed and sent in very good time, which was really appreciated being so close to Christmas. This is the second time I have used Letterfest and won't be the last!

Ian Butter (Godalming, GB)
House sketch

Certainly worth paying the extra £3 for a proof image as I requested
some changes. One of my concerns was that it did not look
as good as the samples shown on the website and the customer
adviser stated that there was more than one illustrator and each had
their own style so maybe I was just unlucky to get one who was a
bit heavy handed. I did accept the sketch in the end as it was for an
upcoming birthday. So to sum up, quite good and well presented
in it’s mount but still only 3 stars.

Hi Ian,

Thanks for the review and glad that after a few amends we got an illustration you were happy with. Sometimes it takes a little discussion to get the right result and you are absolutely right in saying having a proof makes this all the easier.

Best wishes,

Lovely gifts

I recently ordered two pencil sketches of homes for friends and family that have bought new houses. Great gift for them and at some point I want to come back and purchase a triptych of my own home journey!

Hi Rachel, Glad the gifts went down well. Do get in touch when you want the tryptic doing. They work really well and it's a great way to remember those special places in your life. You can email us photos or we can also work from google street views of properties too. Many thanks, Wx

Final product

The actual sketch is a good representation of the picture I sent, but the sketch appears to be in ink and not pencil which I am disappointed about.

Hi Ciara, I'm so sorry for the mixup with your order. Glad we were able to sort it all out quickly and do a pencil sketch version for you. Thanks for getting in touch. Wx
