New from Urban Outfitters – Picture Frame Wall Decals.

These pressure sensitive vinyl decals can be used on your walls or windows. They are not reusable, but you do have the ability to “reconsider” your application before they set. This set is designed to look like fancy-pants picture frames, in various sizes, ready for you to decorate your space with tons of pictures.

We’re gearing up for the arrival of child number 2 (aka Sparkle) this summer, so I’m looking for some birth announcements now. I swear I will not buy some and then leave them in a drawer somewhere only to find them three years later unused. So, I think having some sent directly from a site might be the way to go. Not sure if I’m crazy about these photo birth announcements, but at least there are some that are not pink and blue. Anyone have a source for photo birth announcements that they’d recommend?

This is different – a layered pop-up photo album from Umbra. photopop album

Giving an album as a bridesmad gift is a great idea and these new monogrammed albums from Marcela Creations would be perfect. I’ve posted on some of the Marcela albums in the past, but I really love the muted colors of these new designs. Choose from a wide variety of fonts for the monogram.

Fototiller reader Carrie wrote in to tell me about this awesome vintage camera poster available at the Coudal Partners Swap Meat, designed by Rod Hunter. Limited-edition of only 100 (better grab one now), it is a 24″ x 26″ hand-screened print for only $35. And it certainly is awesome – I love it. Thanks Carrie!

A new addition to the array of clever (and little) tripods for your digital cam. The quik pod is the equivalent of having super long arms to hold your camera for self-portraits or any other hard to reach shot.
