Photo Booth Fun

Who's ready for their close-up? We've just set up some fun photo booth stations for everyone at Enchanted Lake Ben Franklin. Check out some of these great pics we got when we caught some of our employees and their families photo boothin' around.

A few of our employees "monkeying" around with the Holiday Chic frame and props.

Asia, Greg, and Sarah trying to class it up in our Champagne and Ice photo station.

I think this picture was just to see how many people and props we could fit in our polaroid frame.

Last, but not least, here's Toni and friends hamming it up with class and a glass.

All of our props and frames for each of our themes were made by some lovely Ben Franklin employess out of foam core and then painted with acrylic paint. You are welcome to stop in and have some fun this Christmas season with us and our photo booth stations.

Chalk it Up

We've been going chalk crazy lately! Here's a little peek at all the neat things we've thought up while playing with our chalkboard paints.

Spray wooden plaques with chalkboard paint and attach ribbons for quick and cute wall hanging note centers. We made these especially for a wedding party table to distinguish the bride and groom's special spots.

Speaking of saving spots, these reused wine bottles make great centerpieces or as table number markers. We used our Bistro chalk markers on most of our samples, but you could use regular or colored chalk also. A note of warning regarding the Bistro chalk markers - test your surface in a small area first, sometimes they can stain the surface of your piece.

We've got a lot more ideas waiting for you at our store too. Make sure to come and check them out.

See you soon!
