@allenmowery - can you please include a link in the description to Walmart's webpage this material? I've never seen or heard of it before, and there are lots of different types of shelf liners. Great idea and thank you for the demo!

about how much space should one allow from the top of the Diffuser and the flash head?

[allenmowery]

@babyboyjacob - That would really depend, and you can play around with different lengths of vinyl (resulting in varying distances between flash face and the top of the lightsphere). However, I have about 5 to 5.5 inches between the flash face and the top of the vinyl. Then again, that can vary depending on the external dimensions of whichever flash I have it attached to.

Where do you get that paper ?

[allenmowery]

@zootvmexico - By "paper," are you referring to the vinyl drawer liner? I actually picked up a roll of it (or, rather, had my wife pick it up for me :D ) from our local Walmart. The entire roll was just a couple bucks, and there was plenty left over after this little project.

@allenmowery Thanks and yes the vinyl drawer liner don't know what could be that name in spanish to find it Mexico any idea ?

[zootvmexico]

Is there an online store that I can purchase that in case I can't find it in my local store ?

[allenmowery]

@zootvmexico - There are variety of online resources for it. I'm not sure what all might be available in Mexico or what the shipping policies are of online retailers, but you might want to check out Amazon.com, Ikea, Bed Bath & Beyond, and maybe even eBay.

Hope that helps!
