For the walls that have heard it all. Here's everything you might want to know about your print before it goes up on the wall.
The paper
Every Lipstick, Wine & Friends print is made on enhanced matte art paper. It's a heavyweight 200gsm fine art paper with a smooth surface and a natural white tone.
The matte finish means no glare, so it reads beautifully whether it's in a sunny hallway or a candlelit corner. It's printed using giclée, the method used by galleries, with pigment-based archival inks. That gives rich, deep colour that won't fade when displayed indoors. Unlike some of the opinions on it.
Sizes
- A4 (21 × 29.7 cm): £17.99
- A3 (29.7 × 42 cm): £24.99
- 50 × 70 cm: £39.99. This is a statement piece for a statement wall.
All our prints are sold unframed, so you can pick a frame that suits your walls (see the framing tips below).
How it's made
Nothing sits in a warehouse gathering dust. Every print is made to order, just for you, by our specialist print partner. Your order goes to the print studio nearest to you (they have studios in the UK, Europe, the US, Canada and Australia), so it travels as little as possible. Prints are usually made and sent within 1–3 working days.
How it arrives
Smaller prints usually travel flat in a sturdy cardboard envelope. Larger prints are rolled and sent in a rigid cardboard tube, so they arrive safe and uncreased. Exactly how yours is packed depends on its size and which studio makes it.
If your print arrives rolled, unroll it gently onto a clean, flat surface. Then weigh the corners down with a few books (or a bottle or two) and give it a day to relax before framing.
Delivery times
- United Kingdom: free tracked delivery, usually 1–3 working days after printing.
- Europe (Ireland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Spain and Italy): £5 tracked, usually 1–6 working days after printing.
- USA and Canada: £6.99 tracked, or free on orders over £60. Usually 1–5 working days after printing.
- Australia: £8 tracked, usually 2–10 working days after printing.
These are estimates, and things can slow down at busy times. We'll email you a tracking link as soon as your print is on its way. You can find the full details in our shipping policy.
Returns & damaged prints
If your print arrives damaged, has a printing fault or isn't what you ordered, email hi@ailf.ai with your order number and a photo of the print and its packaging. We'll put it right with a free replacement or a refund.

Framing tips
- Pick the size first. Our sizes fit standard A4, A3 and 50 × 70 cm frames, which you'll find almost everywhere.
- Give it room to breathe. A mount (the card border inside the frame) makes even an A4 look grown-up. An A4 print in a 30 × 40 cm frame with a mount looks a lot more expensive than it was.
- Match the mood. Black frames suit Bold Modern and Dark Glam. Oak or natural wood warms up Editorial. Gold or brass is never wrong with Dark Glam or Playful Unhinged.
- Keep it out of direct sun and away from steamy bathrooms if you can. The inks are archival, but nobody likes a soggy print.
- Hang it at eye level, with the centre of the print about 145–150 cm from the floor. Over a sofa, leave a hand's width or two between the top of the sofa and the bottom of the frame.
