Turn an IKEA Organizer into an Awesome and Cheap Photography Soft Box [Photography Tip]
Skip spending a pile of cash on a professional mini soft box, this clever hack turns a cloth IKEA organizer into a powerful, effective, and inexpensive soft box.
IKEAHackers reader Thomas shares an incredibly simple hack.
You'll need 20x20cm Kompement cloth storage box from IKEA (or a similar box from your favorite home store), a pair of scissors or a razor, and the flash you plan on using.
Measure your flash head and cut a hole just a little bit smaller than it in the side of the fabric box—cut it like barn doors so that you have two flaps of fabric. Nestle the flash in, securing the fabric flaps with a rubber band if you need extra support, and fire away.
