IDEAS AND HACKS TO CREATE YOUR #FEELTHELOVE THEME

CUTE SHAPE PROPS

These can be used for anything. All you need is a large MDF shape and sticker paper cut to the shape. Hung up as a backdrop, to decorate a table, or on a stand as a centrepiece, they work well. The timber shape was laser-cut Online Laser Cutting in Sydney. The self adhesive lettering was cut by Confetti Fair who are the proud owners of a digital die cutter (seriously, this machine will change your life)!

We bought this neon string light from ALDI. We wish we bought more colours! We ended up using 4 nails to put it in place, but an idea would be to use a large pegboard, and thread the light around the pegs to create your shape.

LIGHTING AS BACKDROP

RE-PURPOSE KMART FINDS

This humble paper towel holder can be used for a perfect donut stack! They may be available in more versatile timber or clear acrylic in other stores, but we wanted the silver anyway. TIP: You'll need larger donuts for this one. If you're concerned about food safety, wrap it in florist's tape.
