Pet Photo Friday - Consuela

It’s Friday and that means it’s time to introduce you to this week’s sockprints Pet of the Week! Say hello to Princess Consuela Banana Hammock, or just Consuela for short. This 5-year-old tortoise shell kitty was found hiding in a bush in the alley behind her owner’s house in college. Her owner told us that Consuela is “very talkative, very sweet and very odd.” Consuela’s owner made these custom printed pet photo socks as a Father's Day “Cat Dad Day” gift for her fiancé. 

If you want to see more of this cute kitty, Consuela and her brother Googles, you are in luck because they have their own Instagram page! Check them out @googsandsuela.

Pet Photo Friday - Coco

It’s Pet-Photo-Friday and time to share another pet photo custom printed on our socks!

The sockprints team is happy to introduce you to Coco, this week’s favorite custom-printed sock puppy. This pair of photo socks was created as a fun and lighthearted way to remember sweet Coco, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 15. She was a sweet and happy chocolate lab who loved to lounge in the jacuzzi, play ball, and snuggle. Her owner told us “She was a crazy pup, she ate parts of the deck, the one that is in the photo we printed. She also ate a glass thermometer once, which was a fiasco at the vet’s office. She gave the best snuggles and loved whipped cream more than any other treat. She was such a cool puppy and we miss her very much.” 

She sounds like one crazy pup and we hope these socks help bring back all the fun memories, and a smile to your face.

Do you want your pet's photo on a pair of socks!? Of course you do, who wouldn’t?!? Design your own personalized socks at sockprints or send us an email at contactus@sockprints.com with your ideas and our sockprints design team will help bring your ideas to life. 

Introducing Pet-Photo-Socks-of-the-Week!

Pet Photo Socks! Some of our most popular custom printed socks are photos of our customer’s pets. So, we came up with a brilliant idea to create sockprints Pet-Photo-Socks-of-the-Week to post our favorites!

Our first Pet-Photo-Socks-of-the-Week are of lucky dog, Chuck! 

The customer who created these socks shared with us, “My wife is a sock fanatic and we love our rescue Chuck so I had to get her a few pairs with his happy face on it. She loved them so much this is actually my second order that is going to be one of her second wedding anniversary gifts (cotton!).”

We love hearing rescue stories, seeing pet photos and appreciate Chuck’s owner for sharing it with us. Happy second anniversary too! ❤️

Create your own at sockprints.com and your pet could be featured next! Plus you'll receive a bonus discount off your next order!

New - Facebook and Instagram Photo Tool at Sockprints!

We are excited to announce that we just added a really cool feature to sockprints.com!  Our customers can now use photos from their Facebook and Instagram accounts to design and personalize their own custom socks!

The process is as simple as adding an image from our design gallery, but instead of selecting artwork from our store, you click on the Facebook or Instagram link and icon.  You will need to login to your account and then your photos will appear!  Click on a photo for starters and then use one of the other design tools to create your socks.  You can add a filter, a boarder, and some text too.  The possibilities are endless!

This new feature is a great addition for customers to use when creating personalized socks.  Many customers use their personal photos and having quick access to them via Facebook and Instagram will enhance their sock designing experience.

We were so excited with the new improvement to our online design tool that we had to create some socks using our own Facebook and Instagram photos.   

My son and I are LA Kings fans and we posted
 this picture for our friends on Facebook

I'm guilty of taking pictures of my
spoiled cat and posting them on Instagram!

We hope you will take advantage of this new addition to sockprints and have fun making your own personalized sockprints!

5 Tips for Creating Phenomenal Photo Socks!

1.  Use clear and crisp photos. A blurry photo on paper or on your computer screen will also print that way on socks.  Remember that we’re printing on a soft surface so some variation will apply.

2.  Avoid dark photos and photos with dark shadows.  Some of the best photos we’ve printed on socks are those with contrasting colors.  Here’s a pet photo we printed on some crew socks.  Notice how the dog stands out from the blue ocean background.   

 

3.  Crop your photos to accentuate the image.  Cropping your photos allows you to eliminate things in the background that can distract your eye from the main feature of the image.  Also remember that the print area on our no-show and crew socks is 3.25” x 4”, and 3.25” x 5.5” on our sporty knee highs. 

 

4.  Use Photoshop or other programs to enhance your image.  If you don’t have a program on your computer, try a website like www.picmonkey.com.  You can crop, brighten, and make other edits too.


5.  Be creative!  Once you’ve uploaded your photo using the sockprints design too, you can add a caption, title, border or filter to your photos.  Try different fonts and experiment with assorted features that allow you to make your custom socks one-of-a kind!
