See that the Holga works by reeling the 120 film into the spool? We want that to reel 35mm film, so we're going to have to shrink the holes. Get your rubber bands.

Wrap the rubber bands around each edge of the take-up spool so that the hole is roughly the width of 35mm film. You can adjust the size by fitting the exposed end of your film into the hole.

Now place your spool in your camera. Use cardboard (or padding) to get it to fit in snugly.
