Tripod for holding phone/camera

[ Edited ]

A short explanation:

 

The rescues I support have stopped in-person fund raising and gone online.

 

I'm taking more photos of items being used for silent auctions during the pandemic. 

 

I need a better way to photograh my gift baskets and it hit me I needed a tri-pod.  Nothing fancy, just something to hold the camera so the pictures aren't blurry.

 

I'm looking at a very inexpensive one at Kohl's, but I don't see an obvious way for the phone to mount and, the description does not mention that.  

 

Only thing I saw is  1/4" mount.  Reviews mention nothing about having to get a mount.

 

Any idea if that if the phone mount is often a separate item?  I'm just not sure and hope someone might know.

 

Here is one photo of the top of the tripod.  Thanks!

You are an angel for answering so fast.

 

I was just coming back to say, "I need a mount."

 

Checked a couple of YouTube videos and....realized that I needed both.

 

Thanks so much for responding.  I was just shuffling around trying to find it, and you've solved my problem.

 

It will make my life so much easier than trying to hold that phone!

 

Why didn't I think of it sooner?
