A DIY photobooth frame is the perfect holiday party accessory, letting guests strike a pose behind it for fun, festive photos on their phones. Turn your next party into a memorable event with a DIY picture frame photobooth made from two simple supplies: cardboard and wrapping paper. Start with any cardboard box and cut the flaps off and turn them into strips by cutting in half long-ways. Find a fun and festive wrapping paper on JAM to wrap these strips of cardbox with. For holidays, think festive reds, greens, or patterns like snowflakes and candy stripes. Wrap the cardboard frame neatly, tucking the edges for a clean finish. For holidays, think festive reds, greens, or patterns like snowflakes and candy stripes. Wrap the cardboard frame neatly, tucking the edges for a clean finish. Decide on the size of your frame—build a small rectangle shape as a visual of the outcome on the ground to judge the size of frame you would like. For selfies a small rectangle will do or simply cut more cardboard strips to extend the sides and make larger for group photos, like ours below. And please, use strong tape on back of frame to secure the strips into the frame shape you'd like. Add whatever words or holiday sayings you'd like for your event or party on the front and get to picture taking! The holidays have never looked so festive, fun, and Do-it-Yourself attitude than ever before.








Gather items to use as props for the photos, like Santa hats, reindeer antlers, fake mustaches, bow ties, or even paper glasses to make more fun and complete the look. You can find these at party stores or make your own with a few craft supplies like cardstock and markers, and some creativity. Hold the finished frame in front of you or hang it up, and let guests pose for silly or sweet group shots together. This photobooth idea works perfectly for your upcoming holiday parties, or birthdays, creating share-worthy photos everyone will love.
