Cardboard camera

Ever since we did the tutu photo-shoot P has been asking for a big camera with a lens cap and a display. So we made one during one of the rainy afternoons we had recently.

We used cardboard packaging for the body, Smarties tube with a lid for a lens and a lens cap, Makedo and plastic lids for buttons, string, some glue and a piece of a transparent plastic (from a takeaway box lid) for the display.

Lens cap was very important, since he likes reenacting me and how I sometimes forget to take the cap of when I want to take a quick snap of him. He thinks it is too funny.
