My Light Tent

In My last post I showed you a craft that was mad by my 3 year old daughter.  Today I wanted to show you what I used to take the picture of her ground hog.

I took this picture as an after thought so you will have to mind my mess.

It was a home made light tent,  the nice thing about this one is that it is collapsable so it does not take up much room and also the white background can be replace with different colours of  bristol board.


Light tent all folded up with a the Bristol boards rolled up and sitting on top.


The tutorial I used to make my first light tent can be found here.

Unfortunately I only had one light back when this photo was taken ideally
I would have 3 lights when using a light tent, or at least 2.

The changes I made form the tutorial are listed below.

1 - I used foam core so that it was already white
2 - I made the sides and top as separate pieces so that they could be folded up to store flat
3 - I made this one a little wider.

Hello Again and the Organizing Challenge

Hello Again Everyone It has been a long time since I have taken the time to share my Craftyness with you.  This is not because I have not been crafty but more because I have gotten busy and probably a little lazy also my place is kinda messy and often I feel some tidying needs to be done before I can take pictures to show and then well .... It just kinda falls by the way side. I have decided I am going to try to ease back into doing more crafting and more blogging, and the way I have decided to do this is by taking part in an organizing challenge on one of my favorite Thrifty blogs,  Mrs January.com . and I will try my best to share my results with you here on my blog. I have decided to share this here as one of the biggest obstacle I have when wanting to be crafty is not having an organized and tidy home, to be crafty in, so my hope is that by the end of June I will have a more pleasant place to be crafty and continue to share my craftiness with you. So who is with me? check o
