DIY PVC Backdrop - Party Planning How To's

[@staceycasta]

I did this for my daughters Quinceanera. I used pool noodles on the top pole to add flowers. Came out so beautiful.

[@jessicasotelo4156]

Wow great idea 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@foxlover03]

Do you know what size holes are in the pool noodles? I was wondering if these 1" pvc pipes would fit in them? Great idea though.

[@staceycasta]

@@foxlover03 I slit the noodle length wise and set it snug on the pole. Secured it with zip ties. I used 2 noodles. Cut the flower stems and poked them into the noodles. It came out gorgeous

[@angelicagamboa299]

@@staceycasta did you put the curtains on first, then put the noodles over the curtains on top?

[@staceycasta]

@@angelicagamboa299 yes exactly. The curtains then the pool noodle on top. It's a long floral arrangement that sits snug on the PVC.

Thank you so much! Your instructions were perfectly clear! I have a small business and there are times I don’t need my canopy tent but I still want my 8ft banner behind me for added signage and this was perfect! I cut my 2- 8ft poles in half and used a coupling to attach them so they could break down and easily fit in my Jetta. I like that your cuts gave us the options for either 2- 2ft “feet” or 1- 1ft and 1- 2ft “feet” depending on the venue and if we’re against a wall or not! And lastly it’s November 2023 and my total at Home Depot was $43 (including tax) Not bad at all! Thanks again!

[@ofmiceandr0mans]

THIS WAS AWESOME. I totally went to the hardware store and built mine using this exact instructional. $23 and it’s perfect. Thank you!!!

[@judyherandien4870]

I am a new subscriber and just love your to-the-point videos. No lengthy intros and your DIY projects are very affordable. Thanks.

[@trublgrl]

I drew out plans for something like this and will be building it this weekend. Before I started, I thought "Someone must have done this before." So I checked KZbin and found your wonderful detailed instructions. One variation I am going to try is to put a third cross piece on the floor between the legs, strapped across the rear facing legs. Also considering capping the pvc tubes and filling them with sand or gravel for weight. Hopefully this will increase the stability of the whole construction.

[@veronicaplascencia9177]

Hi! Wondering if you added that rear piece, filled with sand, & how that worked? Did it increase stability?

[@mandamaxwell]

Great additional ideas.

[@heykristinarae]

Just made this for my daughters 3rd birthday and for every event here after! Took me about 20 minutes to put together without help but THANK YOU!! The people at Lowe's even cut it for me 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

[@jeanettec.373]

Was it sturdy? I want make one but I’m scared it will be flimsy and it will fall over when I put up a balloon garland.

[@kristyjones7657]

I’m so so thankful to come across your video! My sister and I are trying to put together a baby shower for her first grandchild and we’ve never thrown a big party like this! I had no idea how we would hang the backdrop but now I do!!🎉 thank you so so much!! I’m definitely going to watch more of your videos!!❤

[@TwistingLight]

Many thanks for this! Thanks for being concise with the plans and measurements and NOT giving us your life story first hahaha! Just built this to use at my wedding!!

[@donnapowell1814]

What a wonderful video! I have been an Event planner for 28 years and I still learned stuff from you! Thanks a bunch!

[@EventAnswer]

Hi Donna, That means so much to me, thank you. What kind of events do you plan? I've mainly been a non-profit event planner, but am getting more into party planning.

[@GabrielleMcHargue]

I’m so grateful I found your videos! Informative, practical, no fluffy intros.

[@emilyeeehaw]

Thank you so much! I did this for my sister in laws baby shower and it was perfect! I was able to get everything from Lowe's, the total nowadays is around $60 now with the pipe cutter, even though Lowe's has on their website they cut pipe none of the employees could help me with that lol. So I had to buy the $13 pipe cutter! Overall though this was great and so easy to put together, I will be using it for my baby's bday next month and a bridal shower later this year!!

[@MASQUIL4HIM]

I’m doing my daughter’s quince and I need to do back drops! This is fantastic! Thank you!

[@DonaldYearwoodPhotography]

Thank you as you saved me £35 for a backdrop and i paid £12 for the pvc pipes and joints. I just made one today and I cut the two top bars in halve and joined them for ease of transporting them. I added a front and rear bar for stability and yes I did cut them in half as well.

[@elyssabrecher7938]

I just found you from a link in Dorm Room Mamas, on how to set up photo backdrops for graduation parties! I need to be able to do that in about 3 weeks, and this is the easiest assembly I've ever seen! I'm going to make several- photo backdrop, makeshift screen for video of pictures of the graduate, and a backdrop for the table with memorabilia from her skating career, through high school..... Thanks for the easiest part of seeing my only child grow up! LOL!!

[@ecorpuz333]

Im totally going to build this for my wedding selfie booth for my guests. Im so glad I dont have to buy an 80$ stand that Ill never use again! Thank you so much :)

[@Mynaturalways]

Exactly same here

[@chocolatepie84]

Thank you for this video! I'm was going to have a dinner at my house for Easter but it will rain on that day & my garage is an eyesore. I was trying to figure out to put up a partition of some sort in my garage & this is perfect! Thank you. I'm going to Lowe's today! I believe I need to make atleast 3 walls.

[@janellemayes6714]

Thank you so much for making this video. I am a DIY Bride and wanted a photo backdrop for my Bridal Shower. I needed an inexpensive stand to hold up the curtains and this would do it.

[@theresaalonso4815]

This is just what I was looking for. I'll use this for my 65th birthday party in May!

[@RobinBKemp]

One solution to added stability is to use 40 SCHEDULE PVC pipe which is thicker & stronger than what I used, which was only 20 Schedule. A center post also keeps it from sagging.

[@Snowyegret348]

Do you have pictures with a center post?

[@elenagapper497]

Well done. I have been looking for simple backdrops and structures as I am organising my sons 21st. Not only did you provide a good video, but you also provided the plans, the instructions and other little tips like weights on the bottom. Look forward to watching more.

[@susanschuler7326]

I watched a few of these films on how to make these back drops out of pvc pipes. This is the best one by far, Thank you for your time and for sharing it with us

[@normaurias4807]

Thank you for this great project! I'm making a Hocus pocus party for my Grand-daughter. This is perfect for the Sanderson sisters backdrop I bought.🎉🎉🎉

[@karenscrazycutecrafts]

Thank You for sharing this tutorial my daughter in law and I are trying to make our family's events as special as they are to us. We love and live for the joy we bring to them. Thanks to your showing us how to make this backdrop you've made possible for us to create what we once only dreamed was possible. 🥰🎈🤩🎈😍🎇🤗🎉👏💜

[@EventAnswer]

You are so sweet! I hope your gatherings are happy and beautiful moments!

[@bluewrenreilly129]

Congratulations very well done demonstration wish all KZbinrs would learn from you.

[@debbiezito6199]

Thank you for this great video it’s just what I needed for a quick screen I’m 61 and I’m gonna give it a try - you have made it look very easy to put together.

[@squash8424]

OMG!!!! Thank you for this video. This will work perfect for my back wall. It’s lightweight, portable and so diverse. 🤗

[@StorytimeWithMya]

Thank you for sharing . I love how you got straight into the video with simple instructions & how you decorated it towards the ends !!! Great video

[@cmgc34]

Thank you for this video. Went to Home Depot, got the pvc pipe cut and was able to put this together for under $30.

[@amandah.5876]

Glad to hear your Home Depot helped you! When I asked our local HD, the guy working that department scoffed, “No, I stopped cutting PVC years ago. All those SOCCER MOMS wanting it for their BANNERS.” He literally rolled his eyes, told me he had other things to do, and walked away.

[@Kaymal222]

Good job sister 😊 This is wayy cheaper than purchasing at any shop. Thank you

[@SuperFarfel]

Thank you so much for your instructions on how to build this frame. I was considering buying a cheap frame online but all the reviews were very mixed & I hated to throw away money. This will be perfect for our church functions and family birthdays. God Bless you!!

[@BlackKitty73]

You're a lifesaver, thanks. I was looking for a background construction for my booth which is lightweight and easy to transport.

[@Pity93925]

Very neat and clear explanation . Im going to use this idea for my son's bday party in his kindergarten.. to hang balloon and banner

[@plumpcosplay8562]

This is genius!! Thank you for sharing!! I have been trying to figure out fabric draping stands no options with out breaking the bank.

[@maryyn9190]

Hello, thank you for this video. I’m looking for ideas on how to set up for a booth rental backdrop ideas to hang my wreaths that I will be displaying.

[@navorblagrove8808]

i had so much questions about how to drape a living room wall for a party...and honesty this was a good video. thanks

[@janethobbs815]

Wow please post more decor ideas I'm doing an event course but covid cause it to pause, however am planning my son birthday party for this August and was thinking of different party decor ideas. Am really going to use this backdrop idea with the pvc pipes.

[@thegirlwhoisme]

I need to know how those tiny picket fence trays were made!!! My daughter will be 2 and im having a picnic in the garden theme! Id love to know for last minute touches!!

[@muzzamilc2119]

Thank you - I used your instructions to make a 8' tall and 14' wide PVC backdrop. Ended up running me $85 - crazy how much prices have gone up!!

[@tracihw2509]

can you run down the cost -where you bought the stuff

[@jeanamari4_7]

Wow, this was right on time. I will make this to use as the backdrop for an upcoming baby shower.

[@shunayariley5072]

Thanks so much.I really appreciate your video because I’m going to keep my son birthday party

[@annascarpallini2461]

Thank you for this video. I have a large 2 car garage and was trying to find a way to use half of it for a gathering and block the view of the other half because looking at lawn equipment and tools wasn't very attractive. I made 3 of these to go across and it was perfect!

[@LBP2311]

Oh my goodness, THANK YOU so much for this video!!! My son's 1st bday party is literally 1 day away & I'm having a backdrop banner & balloon garland & didn't even think of where it was going to hang. You are a life saver!!!

[@jajaime257]

Loved this! I am using this and your DIY PVC Pipe backdrop to make a backdrop set up for my kids birthdays! I have 3 kids and I always have a cake table with treats and normally I end up setting up a background against a wall but this would really be much more convenient! thanks!

[@nequaknighten425]

Thank you for this! I just did it and the hardest part was buying them from the store 😂. Extremely helpful tutorial! 💜

[@IzzyAndromeda]

[@Yeli__nails]

Hello that arch will hold a curtain and the balloon arch above thank you very much

[@danacrouch9472]

this was so helpful and it's great that you got to the point!

[@valerialucio6268]

Wow this is amazing. The price was affordable! I spent 15 dollars on making this.

[@UniTheLoony]

This is great! So glad I came across your page!

[@keolakamaunu7578]

Just my opinion I would add 2 tee fittings for the middle to the top with another pipe like you did at the end to make it a bit sturdy to hold the fabric so it don’t sag in the middle. But that’s awesome what you do thank you ❤❤❤

[@palmerhaley9545]

you just saved me a thousand dollars. Thank you!

[@onlyvibesking3675]

Your are amazing! I would love to learn how to put. LED LIGHTS in a clear balloon for gifts and birthdays x

[@reeleesweet2]

best, most concise, to the point, effective video on the internet. AND the info is in the description! 😄

[@anjel5jeff12910]

You are a lifesaver! Definitely going to try this for my daughter’s birthday. Thanks for making this video.

Thanks! I hope you have a wonderful party!

[@yelenaralat3988]

This was perfect! Thank you! I’ll be making one for mine and Hubby’s vow renewal ceremony 😊

[@yvettedorasami1811]

This backdrop idea is amazing. I'm gonna need something like this for my daughter's birthday that I'm DIYing. Would like to know if this would be okay to hold balloons up as well. I want the square shape like this not the arch.

[@LucindaDeVries]

This is incredible! Thank you so much for sharing. You've saved my behind!

[@isabelmedina1583]

I need to have a solid background for my work. And this really helps Thank you

My event is when my sons come to town during the holidays. I just need a temporary room divider for their privacy while sleeping here. Thanks!

[@ellenconley8002]

Thank you so much for this video!! I wish I would have found it a year ago !!! And also ...I’m not even understanding why anyone would “thumbs down “ this !!!

[@princessedaphnee]

To make it easier to store, I think I'm going to cut to bars in more pieaces and add the connectors needed. I think it's still going to be sturdy but also easier to store.

[@UnknownUser-ct8ic]

thank you! this is the best and easiest example ever omg

[@jennoury249]

I love it! I’ll be making this to display and photograph thrift store items I plan on flipping!

I need to make a small backdrop and this seems like a great idea. Thank you!

Amazing. Best guide in youtube

[@KeianaMonique]

$20 is all I needed to hear lol yesssssss 🙌🏾🥰

[@mariahgbaluo9483]

Thank you soo much, now we have something to use forever😌💖 but I got 2 pipes left over?

[@UncleLennySaysSWFL]

$34 in Naples Fl. Home Depot + purchased some clamps at Walmart. We bought a Christmas backdrop from Amazon. Have to adjust the Elbows and T’s to square it up, but for a home party use it beats the price of a professional one.

[@sitaIntiKaburlu]

Super backdrop. Can u put the link where i can buy the table. I liked it very much.

[@karenwiley3498]

This video was great! It gives great detail and directions. Thanks for sharing. I need this for a backdrop to my online class.

[@natalyeguerrero8943]

I love how you explained everything and the fact that you have the plans as well, so helpful! Im wondering if a paper flowers will be able to hold on?

[@EventAnswer]

I wanted to try it before leaving a comment. I did a paper leaf backdrop and used foam behind the leaves and it worked just fine. The stand wobbled a bit as I pushed the pins through the leaves into the foam. Once I finished adding leaves it held up really well. You can see that project here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpmweJ1jodChhpY Thanks!

[@themermaidstale5008]

Make a valance out of foam board to attach the paper flowers 😀

[@kimahritestamark4897]

I love this easy, what would be the measurements for 10ft?

[@AnilkNoolvi]

So nice ❤ I love your work 💞

[@traciehodges5708]

This came out great, your video was so helpful

[@annetteandhercrafts]

Thanks so much for sharing. After watching various tutorials, I was able to design and make my own adjustable backdrop frame to fit in different configurations. Mix PVC pipes, some curtains and a floral arrangement and the possibilities are endless. ♥♥♥

[@marvinsrz]

Omg immediately subscribed!!! Thanks so much! So clear and easy!!!

[@concernedamericandoe1366]

I bet that you could use round umbrella table bases for the bases on each side.

[@anitaholyfield83]

Do u not post any more I’m just now seeing this video and loved it
