DIY Glitter Garland Backdrop

The bare wall in the background in my new creative space/office is killing me. Ok I’m exaggerating, but the wall is blah and blah I am not. With a set of upcoming holiday videos in the midst, I figured I’d perk it up with a festive backdrop. This DIY will be great for any photographer or content creator that wants to switch up their backdrop for the holidays as well.

Supplies

Poster board       Glue gun      Glue sticks     Tinsel Garland

I decided to go with a foam poster board with one side yellow and one side white. The yellow will help to reflect the gold from the gold garland and will be less noticeable if there are small gaps in between the garland. You could also choose a thicker garland to eliminate gaps all together. Apply vertical or horizontal lines of glue along the poster board and adhere the garland to the lines of glue before they dry. Das it!

Here are some cute test shots of how it looks through my new camera.

I’m sure the garland will have my backdrop lit when reflecting the natural light in my space. I can’t wait to try it out.
