How about a mermaid spot where you can take photos that look like you’re underwater? Put blue film over fluorescent lights to create ocean-style lighting, and arrange plenty of balloons to evoke pearls and water bubbles.
It’s also nice to make seaweed using film.
And don’t forget a shell-shaped seat.
For those who want an even more mermaid-like experience, prepare skirt-style mermaid costumes and tiaras.
Sew the costumes from fabric.
It would also be cute if the staff wore costumes like mermaids, dolphins, or turtles.
Masking Tape Art
Masking tape has become a staple item.
There are so many widths and patterns to choose from.
Using it, you can easily create eye-catching spots.
Plus, it sticks and peels off smoothly, so when you get bored you can try a different design, and it’s great for classroom walls you don’t want to damage or dirty—easy on and off is a big plus.
Go ahead and create lots of photogenic spots with ease.
It’s such a joy to see a wall you made posted on social media, isn’t it?
Angel Wings
When it comes to photo spots, you can’t skip the classic angel wings! It’s a popular setup you often see at tourist attractions and stylish spots around town, where people take pictures in front of wings painted on a wall.
With creative poses and props, you can capture chic, stylish shots or cute photos.
If you’re making an angel wings photo spot for a school festival, try crafting big wings using a chalkboard or cardboard! Paying attention to the colors and the shape of the feathers will make it an amazing photo spot.

Staircase Art
Have you heard of stair art? It’s where illustrations are placed on the vertical faces of each step so that, when viewed from the front, they form a single picture.
At first you might wonder, “What is this supposed to be?”—but seeing the completed image from the front is sure to be impressive.
Because the artwork spans an entire staircase, the scale is large, and it photographs beautifully.
As for how it’s made, some people paint directly with paint, while others use commercially available sticker sheets designed for stair art.
With sticker sheets, you simply create one image, cut it into sections, and apply them to the steps—easy and convenient.
BeReal-style frame
A familiar social media platform for high schoolers! Here are some ideas for frames inspired by BeReal.
Speaking of BeReal, it’s a social media app where you can share your everyday life just as it is with friends and close classmates.
Many of the people coming to the school festival might be using it too, right? Unique ideas are more likely to get shared on Instagram, so you can probably expect an increase in visitors as well.
Let’s make trendy BeReal-style frames and capture memories in photos!
neon sign
Pop, eye-catching neon signs have become something of a trend in recent years.
You’ll see them at stylish cafés and other eateries, and they’re also popular in poster and banner designs.
The truth is, you can actually make these neon signs yourselves.
Besides LED tape lights, all you need is a base and an acrylic or wooden board.
It takes a bit of effort, but you can create any shapes or lettering you like.
If you incorporate your class exhibit’s name or make neon signs with various illustrations, you can stylishly decorate the venue.
Try designing it so that visitors will want to take photos in front of the neon sign!
candle
Using candles can create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
First, find a space that can be made dark.
Then decide how you want to arrange the candles.
For example, you could line up many simple candles, or you could arrange colorful ones.
The former will give a sacred impression, while the latter will feel lively.
By the way, if school rules or similar regulations prohibit open flames, using LED candle lights is a good alternative.
