Photobooths have become increasingly popular at weddings. It's almost a must-have. However, they can be pretty costly. When my brother was planning his wedding last year, I volunteered to do a DIY wedding photobooth setup for him. It turned out pretty great so I wanted to share my ideas with all of you!

If you've ever cosplayed or worked hard to make a screen accurate costume, then you have been in this situation before. You've worked really hard to make sure your movie costume is perfect in every way. You've spent hours researching the costume, looking for pictures with different angles, figured out how to make the different pieces, and spent weeks putting it all together. Now it's time for the finishing piece: your prop weapon. Oh no! All you can find are expensive replicas you'll have to spend hundreds of dollars on! If you don't want to spend that money, you're left with neon orange and white toy costume guns. Those aren't screen accurate at all! So what do you do? In the cosplay world, I'm known as MagicalBlackGirl Cosplay, and I constantly get questions on how I made my Han Solo Blaster. Lucky for you, I have put together an exclusive tutorial for Pure Costumes to teach you an easy way to turn a toy weapon into a more screen accurate version without breaking the bank.
