Gifts

Gift recommendations:

My mother, sister, and niece moved to Manhattan and are being extra cautious during the pandemic so I don’t see them very often and never indoors. I wanted a gift for my niece that could bring us together, so I ordered her a 6 month subscription to a monthly craft kit and the same for myself. My plan is that once a month we can get together online and make something fun and beautiful. (Message me if you want to know which brand I chose. I just wanted to share my idea because I think many people can use it for their gift giving this year.)

My beau has a wonderful Etsy shop full of t-shirts and mugs of all kinds of cool things like patent prints and public domain prints. One of my all-time favorite things he made (last year, before Eddie Van Halen’s death) is this patent print of Eddie Van Halen’s guitar support tool

And I love his camera prints, like this Sx-70 camera patent.

And this parrot public domain print!

If you’ve been reading me for a while, and want to try out a Polaroid camera, they’re having a sale, up to 50% off vintage cameras (the good stuff) but I also recommend the Polaroid Lab, which is now 20% off. It’s how I’ve made some of my favorite prints this year.

Also, if you’re thinking of buying Polaroid film for the first time, here is my referral code, which gets you 10% off, and I get some reward points.

I’m still trying to fund raise for an organization that works with undocumented students.

New York State Youth Leadership Council is a group that supports undocumented students and people. In the Spring they raised money to give to families in need. Now they are trying to reach a goal of $25,000 by giving Tuesday.

One of these would make a unique gift! If you donate $25 or more I will send you a Polaroid of my original photography. Here is the donation link. Message me with a screenshot of your donation and then choose one of these Polaroids!

The full range of what’s available is here.

Bookshop.org is now doing free shipping through Monday. Here is my shop.

If you’ve liked any of the images I’ve included in any of my newsletters I can probably make a print for you. I use the Canon Pixma Pro-100 and have Epson and Canon photo paper. Just message me and we’ll work something out!

Until next time…
