As Salamu Alikum and hello everyone!
I really like taking good pictures, (I mean, who doesn’t?) but I especially like taking pictures with a good background. I have take some pictures that the background isn’t plain like I want it to be (sometimes ), and it can take awhile to take pictures because I am always rearranging items that could be in the background.

I have seen really great pictures people have taken online, and wondered how did they get a really nice white background? So I looked around and figured out that they some people have photography props such as these special lights and this white box thingy. I now know that it is a light box, and since I really don’t have the money to buy one of those cool things, I hoped that there was a DIY one I could make and I found one at Dream a Little Bigger.
It was easier than I thought, when I actually got into it (the letter ‘g’ and ‘r’ on my keyboard are a little stuck!). I didn’t buy a box; I just used the box the crock-pot we recently got came in. It’s smaller than I wanted but it’s an alright size. It had a flap so I had to cut that out. But I really can’t cut straight to save my life, I really can’t. It was like I was Wasabi from Big Hero 6, in the scene when they were breaking into the facility on the island, trying to find the guy in the mask. It was really bad. But it wasn’t THAT bad. I mean, I even drew an outline and I mostly followed it. Mostly.

- Box from crock pot
- Hot glue gun
- Old white T-shirt
- Box cutter
- Pencil and ruler (to draw an outline of where to cut)
- Lamps with natural light bulbs ( for when taking the photos later)
I am really sorry guys, I had more pictures but I don't know where they are. I hope I didn't accidentally delete them. If I find them inshallah, then I will post them, but I wanted to at least post SOMETHING today. So sorry about this halfway made post.
