Teacup Frenchie
It all started with a onesie.
I was shopping for some cute baby clothes for my niece when I stumbled upon this onesie at Target. I had to get it for BB. I thought it would be a fun idea to recreate the caricatures and it would be even more perfect to have her wearing the onesie. We already had a pair of heart shaped glasses. So I immediately started brainstorming on how I was going to make a jumbo size teacup that BB could fit inside of. I found this large plastic planter at my local Ace Hardware store and found some foam to use for my handle. I needed something that would be flexible but somewhat dainty. After researching, I found thick foam furniture table edge protectors and thought that would work brilliantly. I was right. I ordered the white, but it was more of an off-white and didn’t look great, so I spray painted it white as a primer and painted it with acrylic paint that closely matched the blue planter. Then I trimmed my handle with some mirror gold paint, the same I used to paint the rim and bottom of my ‘teacup’ planter. This was just the first step for the teacup to use for this specific shoot. I decided because this prop entailed much more work than most of my props, I would incorporate it in other shoots, aptly titled Teaspotting. Now our jumbo teacup will get a bit of makeover accompanied by a matching saucer. Both of which will be featured in some upcoming photoshoots. Stay tuned.
