How to Find Cute Instagram Story Stickers / GIFs
Cute Instagram story stickers aka GIFs are an easy way to make your Instagram stories beautiful and unique – even if you’re not artistic. But there are so many Instagram GIFs out there, it can be hard to weed through the wacky and tacky ones to find that fit your Instagram aesthetic.
Here are some aesthetic Instagram story stickers and their artists that I’ve found and love to use on my account @fashiontravelrepeat.
(In this post, I use the terms “GIFs” and “stickers” interchangeably.)
How to Add Instagram Story Stickers / GIFs
If you’re new to Instagram stories, here’s a quick step by step tutorial for adding stickers/GIFs to your stories.
First, head to your Instagram profile and click on your profile photo to start creating a new story.

Then, click the plus sign in the top left corner (if you already have active stories posted).

Next upload your chosen photo or video for that story, and then hit the icon that looks like a square smiley face.

And then click on “GIF”. And voila, you’re ready to add a GIF.

Now, let’s chat about how to find cute Instagram story GIFs because there are a ton to choose from.
Cute Instagram Story Stickers – Artists to Search
I know the GIF section can be a bit overwhelming and sometimes it can be hard to sift through them all to find aesthetic Instagram story stickers.
That’s why I’ve compiled this list of my favorite artists to search when I’m looking for aesthetic Instagram story stickers / GIFs.
I write out everyone’s name below exactly as you should search for their GIFs on Instagram, which is why many of the names don’t have spaces.
