Humans are making more and more garbage, and we are looking for ways to reuse items to reduce the amount of garbage.

 Do you also have expired film and film packaging boxes, or empty iron and aluminum cans that you only drank a few days ago. Collect these things and make a simple pinhole film camera with me!

Cut out the lens and the hole for the film

 As long as the film can go through to this size, it’s fine.

Thread the new film from left to right and stick it to the old film

 Confirm that it can be transferred to the old film box and fixed with electrical tape

 Wrap the entire box with electrical tape, leaving pinholes and twisting of the film

 Insert the paperclip into the hole of the old film facing up, and tuck the toilet paper facing down
