As the title says, I'd like some budget scarves or something that could be used for a mini photo shoot of 3 girls.

They're sisters, but I'd like something that I could use again for future years if possible.

"Budget scarves" Confused

Just go to Primark or a charity shop if you want cheap scarves.

Otherwise if you want more creative props, consider something like a giant candy cane which you can make yourself out of thick cardboard or plywood.

Will try primark. Unlikely to find 3 scarves the same in charity shop. Like the idea of a candy cane prop - we can defo get that going!

Well you never said they had to be the same! Grin

I guess they don't but think it would look better if there was something to tie the subjects together. Complimentary fabric/design, that kind of thing.

You could use a large roll of wrapping paper and blue tac it to the wall.

Yes and wrap up some big boxes...tie in the classic way with ribbons.

Yes! Thank you - that's a great idea - we've been saving cardboard boxes, I could even try some boxes wrapped around the place & also but the girls in the boxes!
