Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
Alright, so I have quite a few newborn photo shoots coming up soon and I would like an opinion...

I recently learned how to knit and crochet so I am making a lot of my own props... Currently I am working on a hat that will have interchangable flowers & bows... So, here's the question...

How would YOU AS A PHOTOGRAPHER want to attach the flowers/bows to the hat to make them easily removable so they can be changed. There are a bunch of different colors and that's why I'm doing it this way instead of making 15 hats! lol

So, here are the methods that I have come up with:

Velcro
Clear button
Neutral colored button
Snaps

If anyone has any completely different suggestions, I'm open for suggestions :) I have no idea what the best way would be so any input on this is greatly appreciated :)

this is a photography forum not art and craft LOL. I just buy my stuff on etsy.com. If it is only for photo prop I wouldnt worry about it. Just anything that will stick and look good. Doesnt have to stay on forever.
 
I know it's a photography forum - I am making this to use as a prop and wanted opinions from other photographers on how they would want it to work for their own photo shoots.
 
they dont move a whole lot. I would make a cacoon too!
 
I have a cocoon type thing on the list :) I need to get new yarn for it though :) LOL

I would just want it to work as quickly and as trouble free as possible.

Logic says that velcro might be quicker than a button. Snaps could work to, although if you want to change it while its on the kid's head, a snap might be a pain (literally).

If the plan is to change the prop before a shoot and not during, then frankly, I wouldn't care how it works as long as it doesn't break down.
