I found a complete set of Star Wars sheets on my road trip to Springfield. And I only paid $10 for the full set, vintage. And that's where the photo booth starts. There and with a suitcase of props.
I know the photo of my LOML {Love of My Life}, Jv, and me is blurry. But it's the only sweet one we took. I told him we will need to recreate the shot soon. It's not every day that I get to wear my rose flower crown. Or that he wears his MadMen sweater.
I love having photos of us, family, and friends all over my home. But for some reason I always forget to take the shots when we are all together. Setting up the photo booth with my camera, a vintage sheet, and a tripod was one of the best solutions and decisions. I can't wait to order prints.
I created the props suitcase with all of our old Halloween and date party costumes. The felt mustaches and lips were a DIY using wooden dowels and stiff felt. I'll post the DIY soon. And then I added my vintage flash cards and small chalkboard for guests to spell out words. It was simply delightful.
Oh. And though the sign says open 8-9, the Photo Booth was clearly open all night long. The sign didn't seem to be as helpful as me showing people how to work the camera. But I think it was a pretty way to share the idea with guests.
Displaying the sheet turned out to be wonderfully simple since Home Wine Kitchen, the space, already had a curtain in the spot. So I just safety pinned onto it. If you don't have a space like that, I suggest using a few clips and 3M strips. Or push pins.
