How to Make an Oat Meal Tin Camera

You can decorate your tin with colored paper, fancy paper, or you can repaint it and draw on it.

Step 12:

1. We use fancy paper for this example. Cut a piece of blue fancy paper which is the same height as the tin and about 1-2cmm longer than the diameter of the tin. Then add double-sided adhesive tape to both edges of the fancy paper.

 

 

2. Position the paper so the opening is aligned with the pinhole.
 

.

 
3. First fix one edge of the fancy paper to the tin by removing the backing from one side of the double-sided adhesive tape, and then along the other edge.
 

       

 

4. Then add the shutter made of another piece of fancy paper of a different color.

 

 

5. When the shutter is closed, you cannot see the location of the pinhole. So we need to add a mark to indicate the position of the pinhole. Here we add a heart shape just above the pinhole. 

 

 

Now your beautiful pinhole camera is ready to use. If you want to add more graphic deigns to it, go to the next step.
