We absolutely fell in love with our “Garden Party” themed spring shoot. This theme is perfect for a spring or summer trunk show. Picture Elderflower Lemonade with Wildflower Ice Cubes, French Macarons, Flower Cupcakes … what else could you possible need? Some decorations, of course! Here are some ideas we used at the photo shoot that are super-simple but make a gorg impact.
Paper Flowers
The perfect bouquet that never goes away! *Note: these are for life-size flowers. Giant flowers would require a bigger square of paper*
What you’ll need:
Construction paper — any colors you like
Pen/Pencil
Scissors
Tape
How to:
1. Draw a spiral on a 4×4″ square sheet of paper
2. Cut out spiral along the lines you have drawn
3. Begin rolling up the spiral from the outside
4. Keep on rolling until there is no more left to roll!
Flower Wall
Add color to any room with this great conversation starter!
What you’ll need:
Silk flowers
Tape — fun colors or clear
Blank wall
How to:
1. Find your blank ‘canvas’ of a wall that will provide a great backdrop — maybe behind the food buffet table, or in front of where everyone will take pictures.
2. Tape fake silk flowers in lines up the wall, with each flower “stripe” equal distance from the next. You can use clear tape, but we used bright yellow!
3. Mix it up and do whatever you think looks best: all flowers up with stems below, flowers facing down toward ground and stems up, or alternating directions.
4. That’s really all there is to it! Have fun with your color scheme and don’t worry too much about it looking perfect.
