Plan the project\u00a0that you want to make a post about using ACOT products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">2. Take photos of the steps you take.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">3. Take note of the ACOT products you use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">4. Write about your process and how you feel your project went.

Take your photos in a well-lit area. Natural (outdoor) light\u00a0usually looks the best, so go by a window for photos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">2. If there isn&#8217;t any good natural light, bring some lamps over to your work area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">3. It is always better to have more photos than not enough, so take some extras.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">4. It usually looks best if you are working on a white or light-colored background that is not distracting. You can lay out a large piece of paper to take photos on top of.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">5. Edit the photos on your phone, make them a bit brighter. Don&#8217;t use filters, just a simple clean edit if you can.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">Here are some links to examples of blog posts:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acherryontop.com\/articles\/Don%27t-Waste-Your-Paint-Pour-Drips%21-18047\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Don&#8217;t Waste your Paint Pour Drips!<\/span><\/a><\/u><span style=\"color:#000000;\">,\u00a0<\/span><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acherryontop.com\/articles\/You-Make-My-Heart-Smile-%7C-Lucky-Us-Pink-Paislee-18052\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">You Make My Heart Smile<\/span><\/a><\/u><span style=\"color:#000000;\">,\u00a0<\/span><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acherryontop.com\/articles\/DIY-Shadow-Print-Tote-17938\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">DIY Shadow Print\u00a0Tote<\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px;\">We hope this helps and if you have any questions or\u00a0concerns you can email me, Jessica, at <a href=\"mailto:jessica@acherryontop.com\">jessica@acherryontop.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acherryontop.com\/articles\/A-Cherry-On-Top-Guest-Designer-Call-16632\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"pure-img\" src=\"https:\/\/backend.acherryontop.com\/i\/products\/0000\/426\/426746-o-560.jpg\" style=\"max-\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13; &#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tips and Ideas for the Guest Designer &#13; &#13; Here we\u00a0will give you some tips and tricks about how to make a blog post for ACOT&#8217;s Cherry Blog.
