There's an App for That.


I am obsessed with the look of aged photos, especially from a vintage polaroid, much like the photo above. Well, my sister informed me that her new iPhone has an app - Shake It Photo - that can turn any image into a vintage-looking polaroid. How cool! I emailed her a bunch of my favorite photos yesterday, and within a few minutes, voila! I have my own collection of vintage polaroids.









Seriously so cool. Have a great weekend!

    ShakeItPhoto is definitely one of my go-to apps. I used it to make a Polaroid collage of my five-month old nephew, and I think it turned out pretty cute.

    You can also download Poladroid for free, and it does the same thing. And, as a bonus, it makes real Polaroid sounds.

    Try Poladroid, it's a free download and you can do it on your own computer, rather than needing your sister to do it from her phone. I love it. That's how I did my profile photo.

    Me too! I Shake It (Like a Polaroid Picture) all the time. I just posted a pic of my bathroom in its renovation stage today.

    I've heard so much about your blog and finally checked it out today. I'm hooked. Hope you'll visit mine too.
