This first idea is super easy to do and requires minimal supplies. It’s also great because the one-year-old and just play and you have cute-ness behind them. Make these hanging hearts out of fabric, ribbon, and glue and drape them on your backdrop. Easy-peasy, and look how cute!
Supplies: Ribbon | Pre-Cut Hearts | Glue
I’ve seen this kissing booth idea all over the place, but it’s always a bit more than everyone can do. I did it in a much simpler fashion and it was still adorable. You can build a full on kissing booth with wood and crates and then find a place to store it, or you can simply make this cute banner and use one crate for baby. One day, I will build an adorable kissing booth for valentine’s shoots, but for now, this worked well.
Supplies: Cardstock | Ribbon | Stickers | Crate
This last one is actually pretty simple as well but it can be tricky if the baby doesn’t care for balloons. If that’s the case, you might want to skip it.
It took Lily here a little time to warm up to the balloons but once she did, she was happy to hang out in the basket. You can find the “LOVE” prop in my shop as well here.
Supplies: Basket | Balloons | LOVE Prop
First up for the birthday party products is always the invite. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: start with the invite. Once you get that, you can make or get matching items.
This “I Am One” banner is a definite must-have for the first birthday. It’s perfect for the cake smash photo-op.
Another must have for the 1st birthday is this mostly banner. Show off those photos so everyone can see how much the little one has grown. If you remembered to take the photos each month, then definitely get a banner to display the photos.
You can’t have a birthday without a birthday banner, right? Each of our banners comes with all the letters of the alphabet. That way, you can make it say whatever you want. Use it for any occasion!
Finally, this last design is just a little something extra. These can be stickers for favors, cupcake toppers, or just more decor. The possibilities are endless and they each come with 5 different designs.
That’s a wrap on the love bug photoshoot and designs. If you want to design your own love bug creations, then head over to The Printables Club.
