Not exactly homemade, but something I discovered. If you've ever
bought the Pillsbury cinnamon rolls, there is a translucent plastic
container that the icing comes in. After I enjoyed a freshly baked
cinnamon roll, okay okay I had two, I cleaned the plastic
container. I simply placed it on top of the camera and started
testing. The results were pretty good, considering I spent no money
and no time to construct.
I didn't set up a tripod so they are not the sharpest, my main
objective was exposure. I used spot metering an all macros in
program mode. I used Sony DSC-F717 Macro mode with no addional
close-up lens.
Here are some pictures.

out a way to mount it)
