Here is another tutorial I found today on this subject -- a bit simpler to follow and lots of photographs showing how things look different with the light source moved around:

I used a cardboard box and frosted vellum to make mine - it cost basically nothing since we had the box and the vellum was a left over material that my husband rescued from his workplace. I use either halogen lights with it or if it's a nice, really sunny day out it works great there too since it cuts back on all the harsh shadows. I have gotten some nice results from it!
