::look what I made::

{I love the look of this vintage book}

One of my surprises of Christmas happened after Christmas.
Specifically a fabulous after Christmas sale.

{loving Pandora indie radio}

Eric bought me a Kindle Fire !

Wow is this thing cool.
Of course, I needed a case.
And of course, I had to make one.


Here it is.


I love it!
I took a vintage book, ripped out the guts, and made the inside look pretty.
With a bit of hot glue, fabric scraps, cardboard, elastic, and foam ~ Voila!
I didn't find any tutorials on the subject, so I had to rely on a few photos out there for how to construct it. I think it came out very well.

{can you spot it on the bookshelf ?}

It sits on the bookshelf and looks like a vintage book.
Yes.

Blessings, Tami
