10 Props for your Travel Flatlays with Bonus Ideas

In this post, we will tell you 10 props to use in your travel flatlays aka flat lay as well as two travel flatlay ideas for you.

Travel Flatlay Ideas

After the Trip Flatlay

So, if you have just returned from your trip and want to display all the things you did on your trip, you can shoot a flatlay for the same. Some examples of the things you might want to include in your flatlay after your trip would be tickets of your bus, train, museums, theme parks or any other tickets which you loved and wanted to keep with you.

You can also add your boarding pass or any hotel bills if they have a nice design. If you are into writing diaries, illustrating, journaling or painting, basically into any kind of art, you can include the art you did in the trip too. Other ideas would be adding the notes or coins from the land you visited or any brochures from the places there.

Before the Trip Flatlay

If you are leaving for your trip, you might want to click a flatlay with the map of the place you are visiting. You can also add the bucket list page of your travel diary or the camera you plan to take on your trip. Another option would be adding travel essentials, shades or some piece of fashion.

We have also seen people include their suitcases or the clothes and accessories they would be carrying in such pictures.

If you are a travel blogger wanting to create some generic featured images for your blog posts, you might want to include some of the props mentioned below for your pictures.
