DJ DECORATING TIP RECORDS: A ROCKIN’ DECORATION IDEA TO JAZZ UP THE PLACE!
We just purchased a new home that has a light blue wall and a very 50’s looking tile pattern in one of the bathrooms, so we decided to enhance it with this party decoration idea.
Hanging records is really easy and not a mess at all.
How To Wall Hang a Record
HOW TO HANG RECORDS ON THE WALL FOR DECORATIVE PURPOSES:
1) Go online to eBay.com. Find and purchase a few cheap record collections. (Try multiple keyword combinations to find what you are looking for. For this experiment, we typed in “elvis record collections” + “elvis 45” + “Elvis record lot.” You may want to type in “80’s records” or “70s records” depending on the musical tastes you are trying to cater to.
2) Buy some quality poster putty. Make sure to go with name brands like Scotch or 3M, as cheaper quality may not hold, or leave a mark.
3) Apply four pencil eraser-sized small dollubs on the back of the record around the label in the “dead air” space between the music and the decal.
4) Press the record firmly to the wall. (Be careful as not to leave fingerprints on the record or label.)
HERE IS A VIDEO OF OUR RECORD WALL HANGING IDEA:
This idea is great for 50s theme parties, weddings, or even home decoration. To model this idea, we transformed the bathroom into “The King’s Throne Room: An Elvis Theme Bathroom.”
(EDITOR’S FUN FACT NOTE: Elvis died on the toilet.)
How to tidy up your place card table with a new twist…
Here is a neat way to assign seating at your wedding, without fumbling over dozens and dozens of cards. How about getting your dining hall organized with picture frame place cards?
Rather than putting out a card for each person with their name and table number on it, why not make a decorative table directory display informing every guest who will be seated at one particular table in the hall?
This alternative idea to the traditional wedding guest place card idea will save you and the guest from time and confusion in having to deal with a separate card being displayed and retrieved for every individual person on your guest list.
What this bride & groom did for their wedding at Woolfert’s Roost Country Club in Albany, was play close attention to the quality of the picture frame themselves. Rather than spending big bucks on pricey cardstock and printing charges, these couple went a different route. They printed them up entirely by themselves and displayed their work in super nice picture frames.
Here are some pictures I took at a wedding recently in Albany:
If you book us to DJ your wedding, ask about our fun “Group Photo Activity.”
We work hand-in-hand with your photographer to make a big shot that would be impossible to make without the DJ “corralling the cattle” and posing a mass amount of people.
