Hello!

Thanks for your patience with me today! I am very excited to share this favorite with you, as it’s something I have wanted for several months! (click below for the link)

OBN 24″ Photography Lighting Tent Kit

This is my new setup for taking photos of my projects! I have to thank Sherry (BadSherry on SCS) for sharing this info with me, as this is what she uses, too. me to you Thank you, Sherry!!!

I was so tired of having to wait until daytime to take well lighted photos of my cards. In addition, I had to set it up, and take it down every time. Drove me crazy, and such a waste of time! Now, I have this set up on a table in my basement and I can photograph my projects any time of day or night! Rain or shine! WOO HOO!

I purchased the 24″ tent box, because I wanted it large enough to accommodate a 12×12 scrapbook page if needed. If you make things under 12″ you can get the 17″ kit HERE. I got mine on sale for 83.99 at the beginning of the month, but it’s 89.99 now. I think it’s still a fabulous deal! Shipping was really fast, too…within a week and that was from Colorado to the East coast.

It was very easy to set up, with easy to understand instructions. I love that it comes with different color backdrops: white, red, black, blue, and gray. I like having options!

If you are looking for a reasonably priced set-up, I would highly recommend this system. My blog entries on December 15th were photographed at around 10pm using my new system. The colors are true, the glitter is visible, and I think they look great!

Please let me know if you have any questions. I’ll do my best to answer them! Have a great weekend! I will have some eye candy for you soon!! HUGS!!!

    I NEED that! I am NEVER happy with my photos, unless I can take them outside on the patio on a sunny afternoon. Now really….how often do I have THAT opportunity? LOL!

    I’m going to check it out now. Thanks for the info! And Merry Christmas to you! :-)

    Very cool,
    Do you think I could fit a small child in there…heeheehee. I really like the idea of not having to wait until morning to take pics!

    Wow I’m going to have to get this. Living in Seattle–we rarely have good light even in the middle of the day during the Winter! :) This is what I need!

    Well…this is definitely something that I should invest in!!! My last blog post proves it!!! It only took me 57 shots (literally) to get one that I could use…lol! I must say that I will miss the days of your fluffy white towel though…lol!!! Talk to you soon! :D

    Hey Trudee, glad you got this one instead of the smaller one. I got the smaller one several months ago, and my lights are not bright enough to get a good shot with my camera. I’m hoping a new camera will solve the problem. . .

    Hey Trudee! I was just wondering if you were still happy with your photo kit. I really need to get something like this but wondered how the lighting/size worked for you? Thanks! :)
