The cheapest route is to get some white cotton king sized flat sheets and dye (tie-dye, paint, etc.) them the color(s) your like. Use some medium-sized spring clamps (Home Depot/Lowe's) screwed to the top of a wall to hold them up. I would use 3 of them. 1 at each corner and 1 in the middle. Should not cost you more than $20-30 for a complete setup.

For studio backdrop, you can get away with a black/white (or pick a favourite color) cloth (about 3 meters) hung from the wall. This will normally be enough for a half body portrait.
If you want a full body portrait in a plain background, you'll probably need to get 3 meter (thats the width) seamless paper. For this you will probably need to get a backdrop holder of some kind or DIY if you're ambitious. The paper should cost around S$50-80 and portable backdrop hodlers can be bought off the internet for ard S$100-150

Most any thing can be your back drop, just keep it UNCLUTTERED.
Outdoors it could be a garden, lake, trees.
Indoors, use a large sheet of fabric in soft, muted tones. fireplace with house plants.

For indoor, paint your own as long as it doesn't distract from the portraits you're shooting.
Outdoor, I like large pine trees or shrubbery for simple portraits. Depends on the look you're going for.
