Craft Test Sidekicks
I've been huge fans of the Instax camera for a long time and when I heard Fujifilm had come out with a new printer, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it and come up with some crafty photography tutorials for this week's Craft Test.
The Instax Share connects to your smart phone so you can print existing shots instantly and works with the same film as the Instax camera, so you don't need to buy a new stash if you've already got some at home. It's small and compact, which makes it great for travel and would be ideal at a party or wedding, letting your guests print shots to take home like a mobile photo-booth. My favourite thing about the printer is being able to turn any existing shot into a print, as there have been so many times I've kick myself for not bringing my Instax camera along to an event. It's also ideal for photography pros, who like to get creative, use filters and edit their shots when they get home.
Our sidekicks are testing out Sugru for this week's Craft Test. Sugru is a shapeable putty that will stick to almost anything and then hardens overnight into a sturdy flexible rubber. Hester made an amazing jewellery tree to organize her bling, SteffyB personalized a coffee mug, Juditchen embossed a gorgeous pendant and Cat make a crafty cookie stamper. Once you've tried it, you can't help dreaming up new uses for it!
