    Love this speedy and informative tutorial taking the mystique out of this craft. I’ve hollowed out a book so will be working from the other direction, installing the lights at the back first. Also, it’s going to be possible to slide the layers between the edges of the hollowed pages, so no separators needed. Congratulations on being a great teacher.

      Hi Jo! I'm not personally familiar with the Scan n Cut software, but I'd bet there are tons of tutorials here on UA-cam. As far as the paper layers, I've seen several shops on Etsy that sell digital file kits for making light boxes like this. :)

      If you honestly need this basic info I suggest you try a simpler craft! How much spoon feeding can a person need? Spacers are…just that, “spacers” made of off cuts, and the vellum at the back is, as she says, “vellum”. Good luck! Hope this helps…

    This is the first of your videos I have seen, and I can’t say I was impressed as it seemed you were unprepared. The beginning of the video dragged on. This may not be representative of your other videos. I’ve done my own shadow boxes and was just looking to see if there were any other valuable tips. For anyone looking to make a shadow box, there are really nice shadow boxes that go on sale at craft stores at significant savings (Buy one, get two free) and I’ve also found them at yard sales. Keep your eyes open. It makes a difference in how they come out if you’re looking to give them as gifts or just decorate your mantle. Also, Dollar Tree now has Fairy lights at $1.00 each! I bought a case. Good luck!

      I disagree. I thought it was important we saw her process as she went along so we could see any pitfalls she made along the way and avoid them as the viewer. The video quality was good and the voice over provided meaningful tips. She could've maybe trimmed parts here and there, but it was nothing major.

      If she was prepared I would’ve been convinced I needed to spend high amounts of money on special boxes from the craft store. She made it clear. Box should be 4+ inches deep and thin enough to cut. Worked for me. ☺️
