If you’ve been taping those Instax films on your wall or fridge to put them on display, you might want to keep dust and moisture away to make them last longer. Keep them instead in a sturdy protective frame that you can stick on any metallic surface in your home or office. This is the premise — or promise — of the CAIUL Clear Acrylic Photo Magnet Frame for Instax Mini prints. Fujifilm’s Instax cameras have become popular, not only for the fun factor (watching the prints develop right before your eyes is exciting), but also because the prints look great on display. It’s easy to get experimental with them to make photo walls, collages, and even DIY projects like scrapbooks and cards. However, when it comes to actual frames, there aren’t a lot of choices.
The concept behind CAIUL Clear Acrylic Photo Magnet Frame is actually quite simple. You put your print in between two acrylic blocks which are held together securely by tiny but strong magnets on each side. With this, you can switch photos in your frame with ease and display your prints completely without leaving tape residue or risking damaging them.
Don’t have an Instax Mini camera? If you have the Instax Share Smart Phone Printer, or other similar handy printers like Pringo P231, Polaroid Z2300, Polaroid Snap Touch, Polaroid ZIP Mobile Printer, and LG PD 233 Pocket Photo Printer, the CAIUL Clear Acrylic Photo Magnet Frame also supports prints of these.
Despite the ease of use and clear display, you may also find it limiting, being only for use on metal surfaces. Its double sided display is only as good as flipping the frame to switch to the photo at the back (if you decided to put two prints back-to-back). You can stick the frames on a wall with a blu-tack clay, but clearly, that’s not what this product was made for.
