instant camera love

Remember instant photography, friends?
We had a Polaroid One-Step that was soooooo fun
back in the day when John Travolta and Andy Gibb
covered my bedroom walls.
Well....it's BACK in a BIG way.

Darn knew I should have kept my polaroid! Sooo true whats old soon enough becomes new again. Lets hope that good manners and chivalry are included :)
ReplyDeleteYes!!! I love these cameras, I thought they were crazy getting rid of them in the first place! They're smart bringing them back! Love this post!! Had no idea... can't wait to show my hubby!

My daughter has a polaroid...bought it on ebay years ago...I thought at the time it was quite funny that she was so enamoured with, to me, such a low tech type camera...but she loved the novelty of it and the 'instant' product! I know she had trouble getting hold of the film...so she will be happy to know it's now more readily available. Robx
ReplyDeleteI never had a polaroid, always wanted to have one! Wouldn't it be fun to have one during a fun dinner party?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of your weekend, Michele!

Have to scrounge through boxes

How fun! I haven't used a Polaroid in years. Could be a fun thing to introduce to a party - and send everyone home with their pics. These photos are just lovely.
