I Signed Up For Instagram





So yesterday I signed up for Instagram on my smart phone. (just a Samsung)
Was curious if any of you have been using it?
Any tips?
Oh and how the heck do I actually take a picture?
Find me on Instagram here http://instagram.com/sarabethgraff 

What is Instagram?
Instagram is an online photo-sharing and social networking service that enables its users to take pictures, apply digital filters to them, and share them on a variety of social networking services, such as Facebook or Twitter.[5] A distinctive feature is that it confines photos to a square shape, similar to Kodak Instamatic and Polaroid images, in contrast to the 16:9 aspect ratio now typically used by mobile device cameras.
Instagram was created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger and launched in October 2010. The service rapidly gained popularity, with over 100 million active users as of April 2012.[6][7] Instagram is distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play.[8] Support was originally available for only the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch; in April 2012, support was added for Android camera phones running 2.2 Froyo.

Thrift Stores

Wanted to share this today from my other blog. As you all know I love Primitive Decor.

Thrift Shops & Thrifty Trendz Thrift Shop in Perrysburg

 

I have always loved shopping at Thrift Stores. Part of the excitement is that you never know what you are going to find. A few years ago I found a leather coat from JC Penny brand new with tags for $7.00 and it was marked $179.99. I have even found coach purses (used) for about $7.00. I have had days that I can't find a thing and then other days that I cannot believe what I have found. Goodwill is one of my favorite places and now they even have a place online that you can bid on products.

Today when I was out with my son and a friend of my daughters we found a new thrift store that has opened in Perrysburg. We had to go in to check them out. I found a set of 3 tables that I really want for my living room.For the set of 3 it is just $60! I am taking my husband to look at them tonight. I have taken a photo below. I will keep you posted if he let's me get them or not.

Photo: Set of shabby chic tables. Could be used indoors or great for the outdoors as well - 75.00 for the set. Large table - 40"w x 21" t x 23" d Small tables - 22"w x 20" t x 23 1/4" d @thriftytrendz
