If anyone is interesting in making their own light box, I followed the easy instructions from
http://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-make-a-inexpensive-light-tent. It only costs a few dollars or less to make, depending on what you already have on hand. I had the box, but didn't have any of the other supplies. I got the muslin from Joann's for under a dollar (it was on sale, the end of the bolt, plus a coupon) and I got the glue sticks, poster boards, and tape from the Dollar Tree. On a side note, I will never buy tape from the Dollar Tree again, unless it's a name brand. This tape was really, really thin and I had to get it unstuck from the roll multiple times. It also smelled
really bad once you started using it.

Here are a couple of pictures of one of my pieces. I have a Panasonic DMC-ZS8 and I'm using the macro setting.

I would love to get some feedback on my pictures as well as the bracelet. In the second picture I'm using a plastic bowl for the bracelet to rest on, but I'm thinking an all white tea cup would be a lot cuter. It would also give me something to hang my earrings on for pictures.
Off to create something else!
AWESOME light box. So easy.I am going to make me one very soon. Tape, cloth and scissors are on hand. Box will be soon.Great pics.

I can't believe you made this light box. I actually saw the same tutorial and almost made one myself as well. I ended up checking craigslist and found one that was really reasonable and bought it instead. I love the bracelet, LOVE swarovski crystals.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments ladies! The box was really easy to make. I thought about buying one before I made this one, but I couldn't find one at a reasonable price so I'm glad you had better luck with that Peggy. :)
