Purikura – “Print Club”
In Japanese popular culture, Purikura (プリクラ) is either a photo sticker booth or the product of such a photo booth.
The name is a shortened form of the a registered trademark purinto kurabu, “print club”
This is a purikura sticker booth in China Town London, I took this photo when I was there last month, but I didn’t get an opportunity to use the machine! 
I hope to use it next time I am there.
Lots of examples of cute purikura
I tried making purikura online on the website PuriCute
It’s not at all like using a purikura machine.. But I guess you can get pretty cute results. ^^

Aahhh my boyfriend stayed in Japan for a year and when I went to visit him we had a shot of those machines! They’re so fun, you choose the background and then you can draw on them and add little pictures, and they give you stickers at the end!
We also downloaded the pictures online so we could show them to friends haha : ) it’s a fun, cute thing to do so I hope you get a chance to do it too!
Mish x
They do look really fun
Can’t wait to try it ^O^
I chose that as the frame.. Didn’t like most of the others xD then I put the plant pot on it’s head O___O
Waaai~ Yuki is so cute!!
Also, I live in London and go to China Town for Purikura all the time! But did you see that there are more upstairs? They’re abit more expensive, but they’re a better quality and actually Japanese
Definitely try them out next time!!
There are more upstairs?? ..there’s an upstairs??? xDD Definitely will look next time, thanks! xD
Heehee I’d visited tons of times without noticing it xD There’s a cute clothes shop near it as well.
Love your blog btw, keep it up!
