I’m always on the search for creative gifts, especially digital ones. I like giving out things no one ever saw before. It’s fun to explore new concepts.

Here is one that is totally inexpensive yet perfect for children two to 20. I can even see some older folks using the Picattoo as a funky thing to do as well.

Picattoo is an app that converts Instagram pictures into fake tattoos. Instagram is an online photo-sharing service. Priced at $14.99, you can get a pack of 12 fake tattoos called “Insta-tats.” All you have to do is access your Instagram photos through the Picattoo app and choose the 12 ones you want converted. It’s that easy.

This new concept was developed by Ink361, a company from the Netherlands. They actually use a laser printer to make the temporary tattoos. The tattoos usually last a week. The app offers an FAQ, (frequently asked questions) section for further questions.

Have fun!
