You probably won’t be surprised to learn that I take a lot of photos. The ones you see on the pages of Love Audrey are really just the tip of an enormous photographic iceberg. My camera comes everywhere with me, and I have no idea how I managed to survive without Instagram for so long.
While there’s never a shortage of photos on the numerous digital devices I have in my possession, I am pretty useless at printing pictures off and displaying them anywhere other than online. I’m determined to put this right, so as well as pulling together a gallery wall filled with family photos, I also accepted PicStick’s kind offer to transform some of my favourite images into the beautiful photo magnets you see below.
For the uninitiated, PicSticks are high quality glossy photographic magnets. Each photo measures 50x65mm and is 0.7mm thick. They come as a grid of 9 photos that can be easily separated by tearing along the perforations or simply bending and snapping them apart.
The process is simple. It takes no time at all to set up an account and you then have the option of uploading photos from your computer, phone or tablet. You can even connect to Facebook and Dropbox.
For my 9 magnets I used a mixture of my favourite Instagram pics and a few from my DSLR. The children feature heavily in my selection and I tried to choose images that would remind me of summer as we head into what will no doubt be a long, harsh winter.
Full disclosure: I cleared a lot of crap from the front of my refrigerator to take this photo. Truth is, I desperately needed more magnets to make my rather chaotic ‘fridge filing system’ function properly. You would not believe the amount of admin involved in having two children at school! I may regularly fail to pay for school dinners, but at least I can now pin the bill up with a pretty picture before forgetting about it completely.
Each sheet of 9 photos costs $14.99 or £9.50 and you can choose which currency you would like to pay in. Shipping is super speedy and free to anywhere in the world, so there are no additional fees. Better still, PicStick are offering readers of Love Audrey a 25% discount on their order. Simply enter code AUDREY25 at the checkout. Forgive my use of the C word before the beginning of December, but I happen to think these would make excellent little Christmas gifts!

My magnets were a gift from PicStick, but all words and opinions are my own. Discount code valid until 31.10.14.
These are great! I got some done by a different company but now I have family shots and my favourite photos of our horses and livestock holding my paperwork instead of cut up business advertising ones!
They look so much nicer, don’t they?! I’ll definitely be ordering more at some point.
