Multiple Uses

For my photo shoots I usually have to use what I have on hand.  I don't have a big budget for props, styling, set productions, etc.  So when I actually do buy something, I have to think about how many uses I can get out of it.  One of the most useful thing I've purchased is a whole roll of white tulle.  At first I wasn't sure what I would do with it all, but it has become a very versatile item.

It can be cut and pulled together to make a poofy dress.


How about using it to create airy flowy-ness?


Or just use it to create a soft background as well as utilizing it as sheer texture in the foreground.


Sometimes it's just plain pretty.


All in all, always keep in mind the many different things you can do with just one simple item.  It's how you can keep your creative juices flowing while on a budget.  I wouldn't think about ever throwing this tulle out.  Who knows what else I would do with it.
