Handmade Hilarity

Some Prop Kits will soon be gone!

Whisker Works has decided to discontinue three of their Prop Kits and put their remaining inventory on a super-sale! These lovely sets — the Hairy Pair, Classy Couple and Sassy Couple — are $3 each while supplies last. That’s $1.50 per prop, and they include prop signs!

Find the savings here.

Also, there are a few new additions to the Whisker Works website. You can now purchase the Naturalist, a Lorax-inspired mustache, in all colors of the rainbow. And there are now six new styles of Fancy Bowties — metallic, pearlescent and even a glitter tie!

We found ourselves on the front page!

The headline reads “Photo booths, weddings wild about Sanford pair’s whiskers” on the front page of today’s Orlando Sentinel, featuring a rather large photo of the faces behind Whisker Works!

The hard plastic props have become a favorite with photographers and photo-booth operators in the wedding and event industries. Last year, their company Whisker Works sold more than 35,000 of the props, more than doubling output from a year earlier.

Dia de los Muertos

31 Oct by Kelly Leave a Comment

Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, and is one of the biggest holidays in Mexico. The holiday is to honor those who have passed, typically with alters devoted to deceased loved ones, while also celebrating the continuation of life. Sugar skulls, the colorful icon of this holiday, and brightly colored roses and flags, are just dying to be a part of your festive photo booth!

Spring is in the Air

31 May by Kelly Leave a Comment

As spring eases its way into summer, the “May flowers” theme pays homage to rebirth, color, and happiness. Blooms abound in even the coldest climates at this time of year, provided you’re in the northern hemisphere, of course. Make a spring-flowers-themed photo backdrop and spread the joy, with a helpful tutorial available at Design Sponge that shows how to make giant paper flowers. They’ll help put some spring of your own in the air! A colorful floral backdrop will make for a nice addition to any garden party or springtime soirée.

Everything is new and fresh and the saying is a reminder that after something unpleasant can come something enjoyable.
