Apple Back To School Backdrop
Fall is just around the corner and that means our kids will be returning to school before we know it. A big part of the first day of school is capturing a picture of your child to save forever. This backdrop is made out of paper chains. It is so fun because you can use the same technique but create different shapes for different holidays or events.
Supplies Needed:
- Paper
- Stapler
- Paper cutter
- Backdrop stand or blank wall
Directions:
- If you want to create this same apple backdrop you can use the pattern I have included.
- Cut 8.5 x 11 size pieces of paper into strips of 2 x 8.5 (that should give you five strips per piece of paper).
- Tape the paper into chains and connect them- following the pattern.
- Hang the strands of chains onto your backdrop stand or tape them onto a blank wall.
- Have fun with different props to capture your perfect picture!
