Came home from a long week in LA to a lovely photo box from Printic and a few other lovely packages. I always love having fun surprises waiting for me at home (even though I kinda know what they are). :)
I feel like these days it’s pretty rare for me to print out my own photos. I either have them digitally on my phone or stored away on one of my many 2 TB hard drives. It’s not rare that they are long forgotten. And if you don’t know me well, I take tons of photos… at the rate that I will never be able to edit and archive them properly. What can I say? Even though I love having something to feel in my hands and hang on my walls, I’m a bit lazy about the whole photo ordering process.
Printic is a phone app that makes it super easy for you to order prints from your camera roll, facebook, instagram, or dropbox. They come printed in a glossy polaroid style that everyone likes these days. The box I ordered was mostly of my instagram photos and a handful of photos I took with my DSLR on dropbox. It’s a brand new app, so they are continuing to improve the interface. As of now, you can also order single prints, photobooks, posters, and calendars.
TIPS FOR ORDERING YOUR PRINTS FROM PRINTIC APP:
- Use our code: A9D50F to receive $7 off your order.
- If it’s through instagram or facebook, keep in mind the quality of your photos.
In partnership with Printic, we’re also giving away a photo box with 50 prints (like the one you see above). a Rafflecopter giveaway
When’s the last time you’ve printed out photos? Are you better about it than I am? :)
*Not a sponsored post, so I am not getting paid to review Printic. We just thought it would be a nice giveaway.
