A want, not a need, but seriously, I want one bad

I decided about a month ago that I really want a Polariod camera. We didn't have one in our home growing up, but you know who did have one? Our pediatric dentist office! They had a picture wall of all the child patients' photos. At the end of your visit, the kind office assistants would snap a quick Polariod and pin it to the wall. They would also stick a gold star on the photo if you managed to keep the cavities away. Six months from that time when you came in for another check up, you not only got to pick a great prize BUT you also got to take home the Polariod from your last visit!

I remember being fascinated by how the image just magically appeared. For some reason, I don't think that even now, this process would seem any less extraordinary.

Check out this link to learn about this year's Polariod camera relaunch.

And while I am trying to wait patiently for the relaunch, I have found a program online that converts digital photos into Polariods. I'm sure this old news for some of you, but it made my day :) I tried a couple of different sites, so check this out:



LOVE IT!
