CEWE magnets, AN IDEAL GIFT

You know we always bet on immortalize our images in whatever format. It is the only way to give them life, to make them present, to make us return to the moments they represent. That trip, that person, those girls who are getting older every day…

In this line, we like to try different formats that we think you might like. This time we are going to try the magnets from the Cewe laboratoryas we find it to be an original format and a joyful way to bring your images to life.

Also, Mother’s day is coming, perhaps for many even more deserved than other years, you understand me. So why not? It is not the first product that we have tried with Cewe and the results are really good. If you are interested in other formats to give away, each of us analyzed different formats: the canvas, the forex and the photo album.

And now, let’s get to the point ๐Ÿ˜‰

ORDERING MAGNETS STEP BY STEP

The first thing you should do is go to www.cewe.es and go to the section that interests you. In our case, we will go to Gifts-> Magnets.

You will see that within Cewe you have four options of magnets to choose from: square, heart, custom photo-magnets or ceramic. Each with different prices.

In my case I opted for the squares, so those are the ones I will talk to you about ๐Ÿ˜‰ and I will do it through the Quick Workshop of Cewe which, the truth, is really fast.

This particular option offers a pack of 10 magnets, so we can choose 10 different images to immortalize.

The first step is to choose the photos in question. To do this, go to the left area of โ€‹โ€‹the interface, where it says My picturesand give Upload photos. You can choose up to 10 different photos.

As you do so, you will see that a click will appear at the top of the image next to each photo number (I have indicated it with a 2 in the screenshot that follows). When you have all 10 photos, all the checked boxes will appear. You can move through your photos from the same upper area.

The image of the upper area (2) that you have selected will appear large below. It is very important that check the image quality for each of your photos. This information is shown below the selected image: Resolution of the photos (3) . this can be good, enough or bad. If it is bad enough or bad, I would look for a substitute image.

If you feel like it or are interested, before finalizing your order, under the import area (1) you can add Cliparts, text or freely paint over your image.

Once you are satisfied with the images and have checked the resolution, etc., you can go to the next step: Add to basket (4).

In summary, in the main panel of the Cewe interface to order the magnets, you will find:

  1. Image import (underneath you will find tools to add text, small illustrations or draw freely)
  2. Once imported, you can move from one to another in the upper area of โ€‹โ€‹the interface. The selected image will appear large below.
  3. Make sure the resolution of each image is Good.
  4. Add the product to the cart

Then it will display the Shopping basket, where you should check that everything is correct (that you have not put more than one unit if you did not want to, etc.). If everything is correct, go to the bottom right: Payment method.

It is possible that if this is the first time you work with Cewe and you were not logged in before, you must do it here before continuing.

Then, you simply have to fill in the necessary data for shipping and payment and you have it. A new page will appear confirming that the order has been placed correctly and you can save as a pdf. the order receipt.

Instantly, you will receive in the email that you have provided the confirmation of the order with all the reference data.

SENDING AN ORDER WITH CEWE

Once the magnets have been printed, they will send you an e-mail again confirming that your order has already finished the production phase and that they will proceed to send it to you. In my case, it took exactly 6 days to print the magnets.

Exactly two days after sending me the email and the invoice as they had finished printing my order, the package arrived: 2 days. Taking into account that in Spain and half the world we are in full confinement due to COVID-19, it seemed amazingly fast. Exactly the same days as when I ordered the canvas a few months ago.

Total time: 8 days.

The magnets arrived in a cardboard envelope and in turn in a perfectly protected rigid box.

To tell you the truth, the quality has seemed great, I have been pleasantly surprised, both in color images and in black and white. Blacks are black, whites are white, and the colors hold up very well to this impression.

recommendations

I tend to like to look for โ€œtrickyโ€ lights when taking photos. I love hard lights, strong shadows, punctual indoor lights. After analyzing them, although they all pass the quality test, it is clear that the ones that work best are the ones that are simplest in terms of lighting.

As for any type of impression of this type, I suggest you look for images with more homogeneous lights, they are the ones that have given me the best results. Now, as I say, you should expect the same from these magnets as for any non-personalized print. If the base is good, the result is good ;).

Because I’m telling you, I haven’t made it easy for them with the type of photos I’ve sent, and I’m pleasantly surprised with the result.

Here you have an example in color and black and white for you to judge the result. Always remember that the natural ones are better, there is still a camera and a screen in the middle until they reach you ;).

And so far my analysis of the Cewe magnets. I hope you liked them as much as I did.

In addition, these days they will donate โ‚ฌ1 of your order to the Red Cross to help in the fight against COVID-19. Lots of encouragement, lots of photos, and lots of prints on magnets, in albums, on canvas, or for framing!

Let’s take advantage of these days to surround ourselves with what really makes us happy. Loved ones, music, readings and photos. What can go wrong? ๐Ÿ˜‰ A hug, #stayhome and soon we will be together again.
