A Way To Display Your Polaroid Pictures...


Heyyyyy guys!

I have exciting news! I have FINALLY uploaded my first YouTube video. 
It's not great...I'm still getting used to it so bare with me. (the title page cut off the first word...annoying).

But what is it about?

Well recently I was sent some amazing Polaroid prints by Polabora who make retro Polaroid prints and I wanted to show you all a way to display them. 
I came up with a fun and very easy way to make them look very 'shabby chic' using just a few little bits and bobs.

So here is a time-lapse of how I did it and below that is a step by step guide on how to make it in case the video is a bit quick. 

:)









You will need:




One branch, a piece of driftwood or long stick.


A ball of wool (preferably a rustic looking colour) or even better twine.


Scissors.


Blu tack or some other sticky object.


A nail or other hanging device.


And your Polaroid prints.

That's it!

I got my Polaroid prints from Polabora and you can get 20% off using my code!

Ok so how did I do it?...



Measure a line of wool against the branch.


Make it a bit longer than the branch and cut the wool.



Tie either end of the wool around either end of the branch.


It should then look like this.


You can now hang it up on the wall using the hanging device of choice.


Take into account how many photos you want on one length. Cut a length of wool off and tie it around the branch so it hangs like so...


Now do it four more times so it looks like this.


Add your photos using the blu tack and voila! You're done.

How quick and easy was that?


I hope this was a fun blog post for you all, I really enjoyed doing it and please tag me in your pictures if you decide to give it a go!

Much love,

  1. Congrats on even making a video! I'm still too afraid to attempt a video because of all the editing and such. This is so cute and creative though I love it.

    1. Thank you so much! I find what helps is videoing on Snapchat. You can just do a quick 15 second snippet here and there and it slowly builds your confidence. I tend to do most of my vlogging on my snapchat now! Hopefully I can get some better videos on YT with time :) You should definitely try it!

      Much love, Stacie xoxo
