Making match box cameras has become my new obsession.
It's so easy and satisfying to take pictures with your own camera that I'm proud of even the rubbish ones that went wrong and came out as dark blurs. I used the instructions from here and you can see photos from my first try in this post.
My first camera looking all forlorn and torn up, and stuff I used for the new one.
I'll admit that the first one wasn't much of a looker but it produced two very good rolls of film and I felt rather like I had betrayed it when I ripped it open to reuse the piece of aluminium inside!
However, pinhole camera mark two has had a makeover and is much sleeker and updated (actually to be honest the only change I have made is to make the pin hole a little smaller for a sharper image) but at least people might actually believe me when I say that yes, it is really a camera!
SO good! x
