What better way to commemorate your graduation than with a fun photo booth?

Props add an extra touch of hilarity and personality to your photos, and they're also great conversation starters.

So what sort of props should you use for your graduation party photo booth? Here are a few ideas:

• Class year signs: hold up signs with your class year on them - it's a great way to show solidarity with your fellow graduates!
• "Congrats" banners: hang up some banners or streamers that say "congratulations" or "great job" - it'll make things feel even more festive!
• Funky hats: regardless of whether or not you actually graduated with honours, pick up some silly graduation hats from a party store and take some photos wearing them!
• Signs with your future plans: if you know what you're doing after graduation, make a sign that says it - for example, "off to college!" or " headed for the real world!"

It'll be fun to look back on in years to come.

How do I make a photo prop?

If you're looking to make a photo prop for a graduation party, one option is to use a large piece of cardboard or foam board.

You can then use a hot glue gun to attach pieces of felt in the colors of your school's colors.

Alternatively, you could use fabric instead of felt. For the lettering on your photo prop, you can either use vinyl letters or cut them out of fabric yourself.

Finally, attach a stick (such as a chopstick or dowel) to the back of your photo prop so that it can be held easily for photos.

We've helped clients make custom marquee letters for their photo booth props.

Adding a fun graduation photo booth frame between the letters made a creative photo booth!

Can you make photo props with Cricut?

Yes, you can make photo props with a Cricut machine.

For a graduation party, you could use the machine to create props like mortar boards, diplomas, and graduation caps.

You could also use it to create signs that say "Congrats Grad!" or "Happy Graduation!" or my favorite, "Senior!"

If you want to uplevel your props, use a Glowforge!

What can I use for photo booth props?

 

If you're looking for something festive and fun, try using giant wooden numbers as photo booth props!

They'll add a touch of whimsy to your photos and help you capture some great memories with friends.

Just watch out - your friends may fight over who gets to hold it in the photo booth!

How do you make a photo booth prop?

Making photo booth props is easy, and it's a great way to add some fun to your graduation party. First, choose the props you want to make.

You can find printable templates online, or you can draw your own designs.

Next, cut out the shapes of the props from cardboard or foam board.

If you're using a printed template, be sure to print it out at the correct size - otherwise the props will be too small or too large for people to use in the photo booth.

Then, use paint or markers to decorate the props.

You can go with a simple design, or get creative with your choices. Finally, attach a stick or rod to the back of each prop so that it can be held for ours of fun!
