Photography studio lighting 32$ Hack

In my studio, I try to save money as much as possible- so when it comes to finding hacks- I’m a master at finding time and money saving tips!
I LOVE this softXbox for my studio- what a versitile light for all sorts of photos. It’s huge- measuring almost 4 feet - and only $75!
BUT it did not come with a matching grid- which is one of my favorite tools to switching styles lighting quickly!

so I searched online for one THIS BIG- $181 dollars! That’s more Than the cost of the actual light !

Hmmm… is there another option?
what if I hot glue gunned THREE of these smaller ones together? Will it work?
It works!!! I can’t believed I saved so much money!

Love saving money?
