SAY "CHEESE"...!!!

Happy Saturday, family-friends!  I hope everyone is doing well in blogland!!!

I took some time to do some Google and internet browsing for inspiration, and ran across the cutest little camera boxes.  Taking inspiration from several of them, this is my take:


The box that most inspired mine opened from the side and was just one unit; however, I decided on the 2-piece box with lid:


The lens was made from a piece cardboard gift-wrap tubing, the round mechanism on top is a covered cap/top from a water bottle (lol!), and the covered square piece was cut from a piece of styrofoam.

This was such fun to make!!!  Hope you like it too!!!  Now..., say "CHEESE"!!!

Thanks for stopping by and hugs to you all!!!

I'll be seeing you1
