My Light Box

I finally made it!  It was easier than I thought.  I went to buy yogurts and they had them in a white box with holes on the sides.  My perfect box!

Here is how it looks:

I used it to take the picture in the Jewelry Display post:  http://imaginativejewelry.blogspot.com/2010/03/jewelry-displays.html

This picture was taken at night and with yellow light only to one of the sides of the light box.  So it could be even better when done properly

Gotta Get Me a Light Box!

It is a snowy day today. This is why I am posting double today. LOL. I enjoy seeing the snow fall. It gives me peace. But since I had some errand planned for today.... I started surfing to find a way to improve my pictures. I am not proud of them.


I found these great links for a homemade light box.

I like this one better.  It is cheaper and easier to put together

As soon as I am able to get some materials for my light box, I will start experimenting.  I will be uploading more photos of my jewelry soon.
