<p>[QUOTE="Bdigger, post: 2396, member: 157"]I use Posterboard as backgrounds. It is Inexpensive....comes in a rainbow of colors and is easy to store. I keep mine in the little space between my fridge and counter. When I need to take pics, I pick out the one I need. (Usually Black for crystal and White for colored Glass). I set a piece of poster board on my stove so it curves up the back against the wall, amd use my range hood lights as lighting along with the regular kitchen lights.. I can change the bulbs in the hood to whatever type I need. I also have 2 plug in flourescent light bars that I can use. One I have a flourescent light in ( For Neodium / Alexandrite Glass) and one I have a blacklight in for Vaseline pieces. N ot the most scientific set up, but it works well for me, and takes up very little space.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
