Process Description – (50-75 words):
Polaroid transfer is a technique, which uses Polaroid film to be able to place an image on textiles, glasses, cups and various other surfaces. The process is done by developing the film for about 15 seconds, after pulling it out from the holder, pulling apart the two sides of the film, and placing the negative side on a surface you want to use. You let it sit for 20minutes with some pressure applied, pour some hot water over it, and the peel away the negative gently.


Personal Reaction – (50 – 75 words):
I really like the way that the photos turn out because they have a vintage feel to them and the textures pop out a lot more than they would on a regular photo.
