If you’re looking for a way to spruce up your car’s interior without breaking the bank, consider installing a projector screen. Here are three DIY projectorscreen projects you can try.
- Install an in-car USB charging station. This project is easy and inexpensive to do, and it can be customized to match your car’s interior. All you need is a USB port and some wire cutters. Simply cut a hole in the center of the dashboard and install the USB cable inside. Now you can charge your phone or other devices while driving!
- Create a projection screen for your laptop or tablet. This is a more advanced project, but it’s definitely worth trying if you have an extra computer or tablet lying around. You’ll need some materials including an old piece of cloth or fabric, some adhesive, and a projector (or TV). First, cut out the desired size of the screen using adhesive and then place it on top of the fabric material. Finally, attach the projector to the back of the screen using screws or nails so that it looks like part of the original surface!
- Install a projection screen in your bedroom! This is probably my favorite option because it’s perfect for watching movies or TV shows in bed without having to strain your neck from looking up at the TVscreen high up on the wall. All you need is some fabric (a large enough piece to cover one side of your bed), adhesive, and a projector (or TV). Simply attach one end of fabric to one side of your bedframe, then place adhesive over top and press down firmly so that it sticks well into place. Now simply attach the other end of fabric to the other side of bedframe and voila – you have yourself a custom-made projection screen! ..
