Photo zones for 1 year old boy
The first birthday of the baby is usually expected more by relatives than the direct hero of the occasion. Therefore, the photo zone for this holiday should be designed taking into account who will actually use it.
How to arrange?
The decoration of a place for photographing with balloons is quite classic: the space is decorated with several bundles of helium balloons, unusual figures or even a full-fledged arch.
It is obligatory to have a decor with the number "1" - the age of the birthday person.
It can be cut out of cardboard and placed on the wall, or ordered as a three-dimensional figure. However, it will also be possible to limit oneself to the corresponding candle on the cake, if the candy bar is planned to be placed in the frame. A popular option is in the form of a foil balloon inflated with helium, as well as a craft figure made of wood.
It would be a great idea to make with your own hands a large photo frame made of thick cardboard or foam, decorated with voluminous figures, letters, sparkles and other details. Guests will be able to take her in their arms and, looking through the hole, get great joint shots.
An alternative to it can be a ready-made picture frame.
The tantamaresca always attracts attention - a special stand with a plot pattern and slits for the face, and sometimes arms and legs. It would be best to order such an image with your favorite children's characters. It will be interesting to look in the frame of a chalk board, on which drawings and inscriptions can be changed during the day, for example, "signing" those taking pictures or leaving individual congratulations to the birthday man.
Garlands, fan-wheels, ribbons and bows, pom-poms and artificial flowers are also suitable for festive decoration.All this decor, by the way, is pretty easy to do on your own. For example, a garland for a boy is easy to make in the form of colored paper flags, cars and airplanes, circles of corrugated paper or images of cartoon characters. The background should definitely be decorated with a thematic phrase, an inscription with the name of the birthday person or his most symbolic photographs. In principle, the most unexpected materials can be found in the guest area: fur, fabric, lace, corrugated paper, foil, multi-colored wire and numerous gifts of nature.
When preparing for the holiday on your own, banner signs, slates, screens, arches and candles will come in handy. If the holiday lasts until dark, then we must not forget about LED lighting or a bright garland. Often the photo zone turns out to be a single whole with a candy bar, that is, a table with sweets.
In this case, it is important to choose a tablecloth and dishes in harmonious shades, as well as attend to thematic decor and an original decorated treat.
Interesting ideas
Themed photo zones for a 1 year old boy are especially chic.
- For example, you can organize a sea holiday at home. Against the background of the blue sky with clouds and the sea, there is a homemade ship or boat with a sail. If desired, part of the floor is even covered with sand. As a decor, shells are used, a network on which family photographs are fixed, starfish, a steering wheel, barrels, a lifebuoy and other paraphernalia.
- If your son's first birthday is held outdoors, then the key object of the area for photographing can be a homemade balloon from a basket where the child will be planted, and armfuls of helium balloons or a hut made of wicker branches.
- The thematic holiday for a little gentleman looks interesting. A laconic stand or banner with an inscription is decorated with balls of black, white and red colors, and next to it there is a candy bar, the tablecloth of which is decorated "like a tuxedo".
- It is very easy to make a photo zone for a winter birthday person. You will need to lay a fluffy white carpet on the floor, put a decorated Christmas tree next to it and place several decorative elements, for example, wicker sledges, skis, cuckoo clocks or wrapped gifts.
- In summer, the wigwam will look spectacular, which can later remain in the apartment as a subject for children's games. The structure is purchased in a store or is built independently from supports of the required size, blankets and fabric. In this case, guests taking pictures should be offered feathers, bright headbands, pistols and an Indian bow with arrows.
- It is quite simple to perform a zone in the theme of a children's cartoon: "The Lion King", "Mickey Mouse", "The Boss Baby Sucker", it will be enough just to order all the paraphernalia with the characters' faces.
- You can also place a thematic fence in the frame., assembled from wattle fence or wooden planks, next to which the corresponding attributes will be located: baskets with flowers, boxes with fruits and vegetables, a retro bike, a homemade ladder or haystacks.
Organization Tips
Since the photo zone is made for adults for 1 year more, it is not at all necessary to create it in a deliberately childish style. Of course, the child should be interested in being in it, because otherwise there will be no photographs, but the attention of such a young birthday man will be able to attract even balls or garlands of calm shades.
When organizing a stand in an apartment, it is important to ensure that approximately 2 meters of free space remains in front of it, allowing it to accommodate all guests and take high-quality pictures.
In the children's area, too small parts that the child can swallow, as well as large and bright objects that stimulate the psyche should not be used. Fresh flowers should be safe and hypoallergenic, and roses with thorns are recommended to be removed altogether.
Experts recommend abandoning a variety of colors and limiting yourself to a pastel palette.
In general, it is customary for a young gentleman to arrange a holiday in different shades of blue and light blue, diluted with white and yellow, although, of course, there are no strict requirements for colors.
Another important point is to use only helium or not very inflated balloons, which will not burst at the most unexpected moment and will not scare the birthday man.
You can place the photo zone both outdoors and indoors. In the first case, it will be enough to find a beautiful place, but in the second - to attend to good daylight or artificial light. The fastest and simplest option will require organizing a photo wall or using a large photo frame, fixed on a support or suspended from the ceiling, which can be used by at least three people at the same time.
A more complex option is also organized independently - a photo corner. Often armchairs, pillows and ottomans are placed in it, so at the same time it serves as a recreation area. The use of a press-wall is quite common - a banner that is pulled over a frame and on which the name or initials of the birthday person are written. Finally, you can even install a photo booth - a closed photo zone, which is ideal for a shy birthday person.
Beautiful examples
A photo zone with Teddy bears, decorated in silver-blue tones, will look very cute. The background is represented by a banner with the image of a bear and the inscription "Brand 1 year old", surrounded by a luxurious arch of gray, blue, white and silver balls. On the right side of the photozone there is a huge soft bear holding in its paw another bundle of white balls. In the middle there is a volumetric number "1", as well as a white rounded stand with silver stars, on which you can put accessories for photos, put a cake or even put a child.
In another photo zone, made in blue tones, the banner is decorated with patterns with typewriters, as well as the inscription "Yaroslavchik is 1 year old." Part of the background is decorated with multi-colored balls of harmoniously combined shades that form a semi-arch. In the middle of the space for the hero of the occasion is a white cardboard throne with a soft pillow. Also in the photo zone there is a blue volumetric number "1" and a balloon with a wicker basket and an armful of balloons at the top.
By the way, you can do without a banner at all. In this case, the backdrop of the photo zone is made of whitewashed boards, decorated with a volumetric inscription and clouds. During the photo session, the frame will contain helium balloons, boxes with gifts, a backlit number "1" and a table with a sign announcing the age of the birthday boy.
