I jumped onto the Instagram<\/a> bandwagon pretty late. I didn’t want another new social media fad to clutter up my life…Besides, I have enough photo editing apps which I’m happy with…but I can’t be more wrong. Once I downloaded the Instagram app, I was hooked.  For the uninitiated, Instagram<\/a> is an Iphone (and most recently, Android) App that allows you to take photos, apply filters and share with your friends. That simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

I adore Instagram<\/a>‘s vintage filters which gives photos that nostalgic, oldie, somewhat abstract look and the feel of the good, old film days gone past<\/span>.  What makes it attractive is that it’s so handy and user-friendly. Regardless of where I am, I snap, apply a filter and share it online right away (in 3 easy steps!).  Since becoming familiar with this app, Instagram<\/a> has since become my personal visual diary. Scanning through my feed of photos is a great way to look back at past events and moments that would have otherwise been forgotten.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s easy to say \u201cMy life is so mundane…so there\u2019s not much nice photos to take\u201d but that just means we have to look a little harder. There\u2019s beauty in ordinary things and places to be found. Here are a few of my favorite shots from my Instagram feed<\/a>.

I was happily building up my visual diary on Instagram<\/a> when I started googling for other cool things<\/a> we can do with these Instagram pics. Not long after, I chanced upon StickyGram<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/a>! StickyGram is a personalised printing service (based in UK) that turns our Instagram images into lovely little magnets.  Delivery takes about 7-14 working days. Best of all, international shipping is FREE! Cool huh?<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

CREATE YOUR OWN STICKYGRAM IN 3 EASY STEPS:<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1. CONNECT <\/span><\/b><\/span>
If you have a Instagram account, go to Stickgram’s homepage<\/a> and connect with Instagram to load all your images.  If you do not have an Instagram account, it’s not too late to start one<\/a> today!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2. PICK<\/span><\/b><\/span>
One sheet of StickGram comes in packs of 9 so you have to pick 9 images to be printed. I spent the longest time deliberating which images to pick as it was so tough to select my favorites from the lot! In the end, I decided to narrow down to highlights from our Korean holidays so that Daddy can look at these snapshots when he misses us in the office. Once you’ve previewed and finalised your selection, make your payment via paypal or any credit card and it’s done. Easy peasy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

3. ENJOY!<\/span><\/b><\/span>
You will receive an email confirmation on your order and another email to notify you when your StickgGram’s been shipped. Sit back and wait for them to arrive! Ours came in the letterbox after 10 days.  We couldn’t be more satisfied with it. Daddy was particularly impressed with its matt finishing and rich colour quality. I personally thought they make such thoughtful gifts that I’ve purchased few StickGram certificates<\/a> for friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
