NEW! Throw it Back With Retro Prints
It was a regular pic on your phone. Now it's a masterpiece.
Remember the magic of watching a Polaroid develop right before your eyes? That anticipation as the image slowly appeared, the satisfying feel of that thick little photo in your hands, and the pride of pinning it to your wall? (Don’t worry 90’s kids, we do too!)
That's why we're so excited to introduce Retro Prints – all the charm of instant photography without having to lug around a bulky camera or wait for that perfect shot to develop!
Instant gratification, no shaking required
No need to "shake it" – just upload your favorite photos and your Retro Prints are ready the same day! These Polaroid-style 4x6 prints transform your digital memories into tangible keepsakes with that perfect nostalgic touch.
Swing by your local Walgreens or CVS (usually within just an hour of ordering!) and take home a stack of memories you can actually hold. Because let's be honest – memories mean more when you can hold them in your hands.
Make it uniquely yours
After you've selected your favorite photos and added them to your cart on picta.com, the magic happens! Simply click the "Edit" button right there in your cart, and a whole world of personalization opens up. Add custom text to each Retro Print to make them totally you:
- Caption those honeymoon sunset pics with "Best. Vacation. Ever." and the date
- Document your little one's monthly milestones with "8 months and finally crawling!"
- Add "Remember that time we..." to photos for your bestie's birthday gift
- Label your travel adventures like "Paris, where you dropped ice cream on that cute stranger"
Your pics, your words, your Picta-perfect moment.
From phone to physical in a flash
Those thousands of photos sitting in your camera roll deserve better than being swiped past and forgotten. They're crying out, "Free me from this digital prison!"
- Select your favorite moments (you know, the ones that make you go "Awww!")
- Add them to your cart on picta.com
- Click that magical "Edit" button to add your personal touch with custom text
- Order in seconds (and feel that rush of "I just did something creative!")
- Pick up your Retro Prints same-day at your nearby Walgreens or CVS
Voilà! Your memories are ready to display, share, or even offer as a super cute gift!
Decorate your world
Our customers are already finding the cutest ways to display their Retro Prints:
- Create a photo wall collage in your dorm room that'll totally make your roommate jealous
- Line them up along your dresser mirror for daily doses of "remember when"
- String them up with mini clips and fairy lights (Instagram-worthy in 3, 2, 1...)
- Tuck them into frames, journals, or planners because life's too short for boring pages
- Arrange them on a cork board in your home office to remember there's life outside work
So what are you waiting for? Those perfect moments trapped in your phone are just begging to become the ultimate throwback prints. Your BFF/Mom/Boyfriend’s-sister’s-toddler never saw you comin' with gifts this good!
Your awesome memories. Our Retro touch. Picta perfect together. 🩷
