DIY Photo Booth Props

A brand new year is just around the corner! Capture those last moments of the current year in a fun way with these DIY Photo Booth Props.

This is a great craft for you and the kids to do together. They'll love tracing and cutting out the pieces. You'll love how quick and easy these photo booth props are to put together!

It's a simple craft that can provide hours of entertainment during your New Year's festivities! Even the adults will love posing with them for a few photos. They are just too cute to resist! What's even cuter are the pictures you'll get when the kids start trying them out and the camera starts clicking!

I used glittery paper to make them more glitzy and festive for New Year's Eve. Any paper you have in your craft stash will do. Ready to grab that paper and make your own? Here's how...

DIY Photo Booth Props

Supplies:

• printable template shown below
• card stock
• pencil
• scissors
• paper straws
• stapler

PRINTABLE TEMPLATE

Directions:

1. Save and print the printable guide. Cut out the template pieces.
2. Use the template pieces to trace the photo props onto card stock. Tip: Tracing on the back of the cardstock will keep pencil marks off the front of your props and make it easier to see the lines. Once the pieces are traced onto cardstock, cut them out.
3. Staple each prop to a paper straw. Pinching the top of the straw will make it easier to attach.
4. Have fun trying out your props! Don't forget to smile!

For the backdrop, I used a piece of wood paneling. Fabric or just a wall in your home are great options too! Need more photo booth inspiration?
