I'm sure I'm not the first to think of this...

I was pretty impressed with myself the other day when I was taking LO's 5 month pictures. I used the #5 from her playmat (sanitized it first, of course!) to incorporate some cuteness in her pics since she can finally grab things and sit up decently.
I think I'll use the numbers from the playmat from now on for future month pictures!


What photo "hacks"/props around the house have you guys come up with?

Cute. We don't have a play mat like that. I just write it on a chalkboard

[wickednomnoms]

That's cute. I'm boring, we just use the monthly stickers!

[mrsnorris]

That's adorable. If iI had that mat I'd definitely steal your idea!

peggygarbe -- brilliant! Now I must purchase a foam play mat for DS- just for this specific reason!

So cute!! We just have a white board

That's adorable! I don't use any props, but I've been taking weekly pictures so the monthly ones are just part of that and I'm sure as heck not numbering the weeks. I'm just glad my camera dates the photos when they get imported to my computer.

I do use my extensive collection of blankets. I got through the first 3 months without repeating a blanket background... People love gifting blankets, apparently.

We have a sheep skin rug that I lay him down on. It's fun because he looks sooo big on it now.

Nice idea! :-D

That is so cute! No numbers but I'm thinking I should go find some for 1 year. Usually my dogs sneak into photoshoots around my house....

Looks good!!

I love that! Wish I had that play mat. We just do the stickers. Sitting in the same chair. Always in a white onesie.

Love it! Stealing this idea!

Cute!

Genius. I'm totally stealing this. We just take picks on the couch with her stuffed Winnie the Pooh, but I'm totally adding the numbers from her playmate now.
