  Step 1

  You can use the strap from any old leather bag you don't want anymore for this project. I actually used the bottom panel of an old satchel I had.

• 

  Step 2

  We're going to make the strap 4cm wide, so measure and mark with a ruler.

• 

  Step 3

  Neatly cut the strap to size removing the excess from the edges.

• 

  Step 4

  Cut a small rectangle from some of the excess strap and remove the clasps from two old lanyards.

• 

  Step 5

  Cut a piece of duct tape to the same size at the leather rectangle and stick to the bottom. Fold this rectangle through the clasp and then stick the edges together with the duct tape to form a loop.

• 

  Step 6

  Stick the clasp loop to the end of your strap with leather glue.

• 

  Step 7

  Scan some of your favourite Lomography photos, resize each so that they're about 2.5cm tall and print onto transfer paper.

• 

  Step 8

  Cut each of your photos out.

• 

  Step 9

  Peel the backing off the photos and position along the strap.

• 

  Step 10

  Cover with wax paper and iron onto your strap.

• 

  Step 11

  Hook onto your camera and you're all ready to head out and take some photos!
