Default Mini Photo Box- DIY- Under $10

Hi,

I just found this link to a great, super cheap teensy, tiny photo box that I wanted to share:

http://strobist.blogspot.com/2006/07...to-studio.html

I had my husband make me a bigger one with PVC pipe, but it's so big. LOL! I'm going to try this one!

Liz

Default photo box

Hi, Liz...thank you SO much for that link! I have the little $5 photo setup from Evan Hollander, but I often shoot on my kitchen table with a tripod when I have larger peices, like necklaces, to photograph. This is perfect! I will make one this weekend! xiola

I'll put up some pictures when I get mine set up. I'm planning on doing it this weekend. I have to scrounge around the garage to look for a suitable box.

My desk is totally messy- I've been doing crafts galore. This is from my home office. The only light I'm using is daylight, and the lamp pictured- it's one of those full-spectrum lamps for crafts, so you can see exactly what colors you're using.
