DIY - SPOTTED CAMERA STRAP

I recently got one of those Fuji Film Instax cameras to replace my reallllly old polaroid camera.  I ran out of polaroid film, and it is just way too expensive to get more.  So far I'm really into my Fiji Film camera, I got the wide one so its more the same size as a polaroid then the small Fuji Film Instax.  I'm really excited to start using it more! Instant cameras are perfect for traveling and beach days!  So since I have a new camera, obviously I need a new camera strap.

Here's how I made a spotted camera strap!

What you will need:

- 1 yard of canvas ribbon (1.25 inches thick)

- 2 swivel hooks

- scisors 

- black paint

- paint brush

- sewing machine and thread (or you can hand sew)

- clear nail polish

- You may not need this one, but I also used two key hooks to attached the strap

How to make the camera strap:

Paint the strap in random spots and let dry.

Fold each end up 2 inches then cut a little triangle off the edges.

Slide on the swivel hooks then pin the strap ends to prepare for sewing.

Sew! (Don't mind my really awful sewing, I'm working on it.)

Finish off your camera strap by painting all the cut edges with clear nail polish so they wont fray.  Let the nail polish dry.  Attach the strap to your camera and take tons of pictures!
