People who like handicrafts may have also tried this trick, which is to crazyly change clothes for the camera, and sometimes even change their looks to suit the seasons. Do you want to try it too? Actually, it’s really simple and you can do it easily.

Take this LC-Wide as an example. It has been in French style for nearly 3 months. Due to the use of cloth tape, it is already dirty and peeling, and it has turned into a dirty child.

Take off the dirty clothes and return them to their original appearance. However, the mistake is that the cloth tape is highly sticky. After taking it off, the surface of the camera is a bit sticky. Then, prepare to put on new clothes for it!

Then I came to the front. I originally wanted to continue the style of the back. However, the dotted patterns have been so tempting recently, and thinking about the upcoming New Year, I should get a red one to suit the occasion. So, use these three colors to match.

After pasting, there will be excess part due to the size of the paper tape. You can choose to leave it as it is, or you can cut it off. At this time, you can use your nails to press the edge marks clearly before cutting.
