Artwork:How to make Shadow box

The shadow box I saw on Pinterest was so nice that I made it. This is a gift for a friend.

The frame uses what is sold on Amazon. The design is based on the photo taken at the aquarium.

The morning glory pattern is based on the photos and illustrations of pinterest. The actual plant is more complicated, but the shadow picture is distorted because it has a simpler design.

The paper is spirally stacked to give depth.

How to put out the depth is like the picture below.

Place the goldfish-shaped paper on the tracing paper.

Insert a cardboard for light control. If it is thin paper, it passes light so I recommend 0.5 mm or more.

Insert a spacer so that the LED light does not touch the paper directly.

The spacer is made by cutting a 0.5 mm styrene board.

It will be like this when assembled.

Finally make the lid of the frame. I used a stainless steel plate to stick the LED light to the lid.Because LED lights generate heat, it is better to stop sticking directly to paper.

Thank you for reading.
