How to make a Light box the quick easy way!! With a T-Shirt! No Sew! No Glue!

 If you have ever wanted to sell something online or do anything online for that matter you know that the picture will literally make or break you. I have read tons of articles touting the importance of awesome professional looking pictures. A light box is a great way to ensure better pictures. Here is how to make one quick and easy with no sew and no glue using a T-shirt!!

What you will need:
8 16 inch long 1/2 inch PVC pipe pieces
4 1/2 inch PVC pipe cut to 14 inches long
8 1/2 inch to thread adapters
8 1/2 inch 3 way 2 slip and 1 thread
duct tape
white poster board cut to 16 inches x 28 inches
1 XXL white t shirt
2 clip lights with flexible necks



Step 1: thread together the 1/2 inch threaded pieces 
Repeat 8 times
Step 2: Place the slip to thread adapters onto the 14 inch pieces and repeat 4 times


Step 3: Connect 2 16 inch pieces into the the slips and repeat to create 4 corners







 Step 4: place so that one of the 14 inch pieces is on the bottom or on the floor
Step 5: without creasing the pre cut poster board use duct tape to tape the posterboard (matte side NOT shinny side up) to the top rear and bottom front PVC pieces




 Step 6: Place T shirt hem opening over the cube so that the neck and arms are behind the poster board


 Tada!!

 Clip on your lights so you have one shinning on the top and one shinning on the sides
