I try to style my photos with interesting backgrounds and props.
I love the look of wood to set off whatever I'm presenting.
Burlap is also nice for a back drop.

You've probably seen this blue wooden one a lot, I think it's my favorite.
Well, all of these backgrounds are actually...
Scrapbook paper that I found at Hobby Lobby!
I'd love to have lots of real wood backdrops (and I did just buy this one from Ikea) but until I do, I'll be using these stand-ins to style my photos.
Have you ever tried this technique?
How do you keep your photos fun and interesting?

I love your wood props! So many ways to use wood and color! Thanks for sharing. I always love seeing your many creative ways using photography. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
FABULOUS idea! Thanks for sharing your secrets.
How clever! I have actually done a couple of layouts on that very same scrapbook paper.....love it!!!! Have a great weekend!
Very clever. :-)
I did not think of using scrap book paper. You ROCK GIRL!
Thank you for sharing too. :-)
Who would have thought that scrapbook paper would work as a backdrop. I've got "tons" of paper so now I'll be on the lookout for patterns that will work for photos. Thanks for the tip.
Love the wood paper! I've used polka dots and other fun papers before, but never thought about wood! Great idea!!
Tricky! I never would have known!
You're a sneaky one!! And very resourceful :). Great idea and thanks for sharing.
OH MY GOSH! I didn't realize they were paper. Now I feel like I need to go to Hobby Lobby ASAP - of course, when do I not feel that way ;)
I love how you style your photographs though, and I so love this easy trick!
Wha???? You got me! I thought they were just console tables or dressers you had around the house. That's a great idea. :)

Wow...what a great idea! I'm new to blogging and terrible at pictures, but I'm working on it. This idea will be a great help. Thank you!
