Give Props to the Props

We had a lot of fun playing around with a new prop during the recent Fruit Basket and Friends photo shoot. It’s a flowerpot with what I guess you’d call curved metal stems that have metal clips shaped like flowers on the ends. We clipped the lollipops in place and snapped a bunch of pictures, such as this one:

You can see Pistachio-Marshmallow in the center, Sweetened Grapefruit on the left, Pineapple Heaven in the lower right. Maple Sugar is hanging off the right edge, and a few other lollipops are visible in the way back.

It looks pretty cool in person – I’m not sure the photo does it justice! The lollipops fan out around that white pot and it’s hard to capture the whole scene at once. I think displaying the lollipops as the flowers or fruits of a little plant is really cool.
