how to make a photo booth backdrop with pallets

With hammers and crowbars and a lot of sweat, we got most of the wood off of 3 of the pallets. So, I recruited one of my friends to come over and help me. The hubs has a broken pinky right now and isn’t very useful.

I scrounged up about 4 of them and totally forgot about how much of a pain they are to take apart. This got me thinking…why don’t I make a wall similar to the background and use it as a backdrop to take my pictures against! BRILLIANT! STEP 1: GATHERING AND PREPARING THE WOODĪt first I thought about making it out of pallets. So when my blog got it’s new look last week, you may have noticed the wooden background, which I LOVE.

Yes, I’m probably being too picky, but I can’t help it! Honestly, I’ve never been truly happy with any place in our apartment that I stage my photos. Our living room is also painted a not so pretty brown that I just never put the effort into painting.

So if you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen the photo I posted on Saturday of a little something I was working on. Happy Monday friends! Hope you all had a great weekend! I had a fabulous time working on some projects, spending time with a friend who came to visit and relaxing at the beach 🙂 Can’t get better than that!
