Bachelorette Party DIYs: Photo Booth Props

So far this has been my absolute favorite DIY using my Cricut. These bachelorette wine themed photo booth props turned out so cute!!

This also was my most time consuming project as of yet, but the final product is totally worth it. A few of the props I made came from the Cricut image library which I will use for the steps below, but the others I personally made and converted to SVGs and these are on sale now in my Esty shop! (My personal fav are those bride glasses!)

What you’ll need:

-a whole lot of cardstock in multiple colors and textures (I used gold glitter, copper foil, white, pink, and maroon)

-wooden skewer sticks

-hot glue/gun

Steps:

The steps to complete are relatively simply: cut the shapes and glue. But I’ll go into detail and show you how I troubleshot some of the issues I had while making these.

So as always, Start in Cricut design space. I uploaded my premade images first:

When you first import the SVG, there will be a few extra shapes that are all grouped together, you will need to click on the group and click “weld.”

Then, duplicate all of the speech bubble signs to create a background layer. After the layer is duplicated, hide all contours except for the outline of the speech bubble:

Then I set each layer as a different color so they would cut on different pieces of cardstock.

Then I went to the Cricut image library and found additional images like lips, heart glasses and a mustache.

And cut!

Once all the pieces were cut, then you can begin gluing. I used hot glue to attach the skewer to the back of each prop. I also used hot glue when gluing any layers to the glitter cardstock. Then for any regular cardstock layers, I was able to use a regular glue stick.

Ta da!
