I was literally like "what about a dual backdrop" and omg u popped up!! prayers answered!

[@shawnyawilliams4621]

Awesome video, and for those who are like me and has added this at the last minute..I attached extra pvc fittings with flat plates instead of the 4-way furniture pvc fitting.. it works

[@sanz2018]

Thank you so much for this! I'm planning my wedding and considering doing my own backdrop and this is by far the best and easy option for me! Really appreciate you!!

[@themermaidstale5008]

You came to the rescue in my search! I recently watched you build the single version. I really appreciate that you provide measurements and quantities of items needed.

[@dcollinrules]

Amazing video! Made one thanks to your detailed video! Thank you so much for posting videos like this!

[@donnaspencer3399]

I made this for my daughter’s bridal shower. It was easy to do because your instructions were clear and concise. I shortened it to be 6 ft tall because of low ceiling. Worked perfectly! It is December 2021 and all materials, including sand, was $86.

[@Bbbbbb398]

Thank you for sharing the price! I had no clue what to expect

[@lakeiba_]

I will be making some of these for my nephew's Event Planner business. Im sure he will love them.

[@jasmingreen630]

This video gave me the confidence to go ahead and make this. Just left my local Lowes and all the supplies cost me over $100 😢 pipes were $6.27 each and I had to purchase a cutter because Lowes refused to cut them for me. Seems easy enough to assemble though!

[@ponderingskeptic6745]

Seriously SO thankful for this and the twinkle light backdrop video!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Great video for a non-creative person like me who struggles with DIY. And you linked the items to make it even easier instead of searching and guessing. This video was so well laid out that even I can do it!!! ✨♥️✨♥️✨♥️✨♥️

[@Joferg97]

Thank you for sharing your blueprint. I also purchased the extra pieces to quickly convert this double into 2 single backdrops. I did add 3 piece (4) connectors at the top at the top to be able to drape fabric in the middle to totally cover and make the backdrop look like one small canopy.

[@kayladahl8311]

I’m planning a whirlwind wedding on a serious budget... draping costs are ridiculous!! This is a real life saver!! Thanks so much!!!

[@EventAnswer]

You are so welcome! Happy wedding planning!

[@ShereeTimms]

I am a photographer and these are going to help in so many ways, thank you for posting these

[@mandygobin6220]

[@desireehaymond]

Thank You for your video. This will be my first with PVC. I'll send a pic when I'm done

Me encanta saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪

[@joymubita7016]

This is awesome!! I recently just starting learning about event deco and your videos are the best. So simple and straightforward

[@loveisiah8]

OMG IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND A VIDEO LIKE THIS FOR A WEEK!!! LOVE HOW YOU SHOW AND EXPLAIN THE SET UP!! ♡♡

[@danelaavila7057]

Me encantó! Justo lo que estaba buscando. Muchas Gracias❤

[@rhondadennis384]

I tried the single one that you posted, and I'll definitely try this one🤗🤗, loving these videos

[@maureengreen4008]

I have seen you before and I laughed part way through the last video because you were funny. I’m so glad you are back...your hand gestures and facials are so comical but in a good way...just subscribed. I hope you have more to share? This will be a great idea for an upcoming party...well done you👍🏼 Thanks for sharing🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Realenda]

Oh lord! Life saver 👏❤️🌷🌷

[@Ackbarfangirl]

It also seems like it’d be sturdier too! On account of having a bigger base and stuff (?) . Thanks!

[@OnlyRealTink777]

Love this ! If I want to curve it I could use a hoola hoop ! 😂 ~ * = 8 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@EventAnswer]

Absolutely! Here is a round arch I built with PVC and PEX pipe, but you could use a hula hoop instead of the PEX pipe. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3zQoHR3n8eim9E

[@newtonbruton5252]

really good

[@carlottaromero7110]

Thank you so much. I’m going to build mine today !

[@clararam1522]

Great video!!!! Super simple to follow Thank you

[@Dsahane16]

Thank you for sharing . Very informative ...

[@JoseanOsorioOficial]

If I want to make 3 separate double layered backdrop stands of these, how many would I need of materials?

[@molikasokha6303]

Is the PVC strong enough to hold boxwood wall backdrop?

[@amandabaker9323]

Great video. This was very helpful. One question, if I paid close enough attention, the height is 84” and width is 96”?

[@itsnotmeitsyou4582]

iddi the first one you made a while back, can you do a video on ow to incorporate that one to look like this one?

[@adeskitchen1562]

Thanks so hw I was really helpful

[@southjersey10]

First great pacing of the instructions as well as good enunciation. I was able to follow the plan easily. After watching the video for the single backdrop it made sense to me to build a double since I have the space and it’s just a few more cuts. Anticipation, eh? Curious if anyone has experience with the strength of using 3/4” pvc pipe. Thanks. Mark

[@southjersey10]

@@MensaGiraffe wonderful idea. Thanks

[@rachelking7002]

Do you think it's strong enough to hold a chandelier in the front?

[@merleraman3621]

Another great video. Thank you.

[@rachelking7002]

What have I used 3/4 PVC pipes? And do you think it will hold the weight of four curtains? I also want to do a 8x8 ft

[@olgag09]

Great video & instructions! About how much did it cost for all of the supplies?

[@kyang435]

I just purchased the items including tool to cut the pvc pipe and total was around $45

[@victoriaval7975]

estimate on a weight limit? looking to this for my baby's 1st BDay. thank you for this

[@surabhiroy4399]

Hey, question. How much weight can each crossbar of this stand support? Especially for garland or flower style heavy decorations.

[@bhumikapatel8835]

Can you share the link or details from where can we get cheap good quality PVC pipes ? Thank you

[@gracielaaliaga8465]

Do you think it is strong enough to put a wall flowers ?

[@Marlynoux]

You can always put some quick cement in the pipes to make them heavier and then it should work!

[@thoughtfulcreationsbyhatti305]

Love it❤️

[@oceanblue7696]

I’m wandering how many weight it can hold ??

[@itsnotmeitsyou4582]

id like to add a chandelier to my canopy but that uses no electricity! what do you think?

[@punkidunk]

Thank you for the video! I just have one question. I am considering a greenery wall. Will the back pole be strong enough to hold it? Also, I want to put a flower bar across the front top. Do you think that this set up will hold all of that weight without sagging? Thank you, Donna

[@MariaRivera-bl3lw]

Hi, I was wondering the same thing. I didn’t see a reply here and wasn’t sure if she messaged you separately.

[@Tiaraslifestlye]

What size curtains would you reccomend?

[@lifewithstaph]

Can you show other ways to decorate the backdrop.

[@thadsejaperinpanesan9101]

Is there a way that I can make an adjustable Double Backdrop stand?

[@belitadsouza3839]

Where can I purchase the pipes online?

[@juliuseugenio2178]

How heavy can it hold?

[@prashanthprashanth-tz5dd]

How did you manage the bottom part which touches the floor, how does the balance work.

[@lamishyasat7410]

Can this be also used to make 1 backdrop as well? The thing is that i'm planning to make a 1 backdrop theme this month but maybe i can make the double to use it later on. Is this possible?

[@michellescott4986]

What's the the curtain sizes and step by step ..

[@MoviesAreMyThing]

Do you think 3/4 inch would be an *okaaay* alternative? It’s $3 cheaper than the 1 inch for the same length. We are trying to save anywhere we can

[@EventAnswer]

I think you could get away with using 3/4" pipes, it just means that your horizontal pipes may sag more easily under weight. Don't forget to get the 3/4 fittings as well! Happy making!

[@tonyascreativespace3067]

How much did all you pipes cost

[@leonaaboko-cole3052]

Thank you for sharing

[@dstarlette25]

TFS! 😃👍

[@alixgalloway2809]

So in the end, it is 6ft tall?

[@EventAnswer]

It stands just over 7ft tall and 8ft wide.

[@alixgalloway2809]

@@EventAnswer thank you so much

[@mmm1100]

Is there any way to make this double backdrop a little smaller ?

[@EventAnswer]

Absolutely. Just shorten whichever measurement you need, but be sure to do the same to the front and back pipes.

[@keliam8587]

What would be the cuts for a 10ft tall stand?

[@EventAnswer]

This stand is 7 feet tall, so if you add 18 inches to all the side pieces that would give you 10 feet. I just wouldn't make it taller than 10 feet as it will start to be really wobbly.

[@samshamblin8723]

Could I make this to be 8-9ft tall instead?

[@frinnameeya4644]

More backdrops ideas.

[@valeriestevenson788]

I am a little late. I don't know where to find the additional info you reference in the video. Could you help me figure out the dimensions for 10' or 12' feet wide? /if not, just the info you mentioned.

[@abbylynn8872]

It's in the description of the video, up above

[@MaeRechae]

What is the size of the joints used to connect them?

[@EventAnswer]

You have to use the same sized joints as the pipe you're using. So the backdrop is made from 1" pipe and 1" joints. Happy making!

[@gladyslorenzana7594]

What are the things that i need

[@EventAnswer]

All the supplies are listed in the description.

[@janetleigh8031]

what did this cost what I am figuring up over $100.00

[@livingtheyounglife0905]

What type of curtain is the white one?

[@EventAnswer]

Hi Ashley, I use these curtains bit.ly/2tKl3zC. They are 5x10' panels and both the blue and white are the same ones in the link. I love how long and opaque they are!
