turn her into a stamp!

Posted by Dimitrios (ATHENS, Greece) on 16 February 2007 in Lifestyle & Culture.

The greek post-office gives you the opportunity to turn your photos into stamps. You have seen this photo before. I just took it to them and within 5 minutes it was converted into a stamp. So this photo can travel all around the world, fine idea don´t you think. I am so proud! ha ha

With the time approaching let’s celebrate the coming of the new year.
Post one image on December 25th with a Xmas wish.
Post a second image on January the 1st 2010 and include a smile with yourself in this picture!
Get your mind working on this idea am3, tell your friends about it.
See you there, all the best, Dimitrios from Athens Greece.

I really like this idea! how many photos they accept to be converted? :D
,by the way you pick a nice photo!

@lover: greetings to Esfahan. If you can aford to pay you can do as many as you like. They have 25-20 designs to choose from. They started this service during the Olympic games in Athens in 2004. People turn into stumps mainly portraits of their children, friends and relatives for fun. The stumps can be used afterwards for regular mail. Regards D.

We also have this opportunity in Iran. But it takes a week to get your stamps. I've got that done as a birthday present for one of my friends once. That's a cool idea.
