merry christmas, yall

over the holidays i made things. i made a photobooth for my christmas party. i made my first batch of homemade cupcakes ever. they were cheesecake and they were a hit. i also made money(because i have a job). here is the cheesecake cupcake recipe and then i will tell you how to make your own photobooth, including pictures.

ingredients:

that was easy. now on to how to make your own photobooth backdrop.
here is a list of what you will need:
1. a camera, duh
2. a light, it doesn't have to be a real studio light, a lamp will do..just remove the shade
3. a large space big enough to drape your materials, I would recommend atleast 5 feet wide
4. fabric, a blanket, curtains, any material that can be draped and hung
5. decorations, get creative. I used garland, crepe streamers, cord, felt, wire, glitter and some string

now that you have these materials: first hang the fabric then go crazy with your decorations! clear tape works fine, i wanted it to be as tacky as could be so i just went nuts taping things. once you are all done get some friends in front of it, turn your lights and camera on and boom! photo booth party!
