Upcycled device cozy

Upcycle device cozy

This ia a neat way of having a spot for you tablet or telephone. 

You can say it is a resting spot - this in itself sounds very stange, but the idea is that you rest your phone/device. 

How you want to use it is entirely up to you...listen to music, work on your tablet it just have it next to your bed while it is charging. 

Super clever and logic idea!!

Flower baby corduroy iPad cover

This blue/brown flower baby Corduroy has served it purpose many fold. 

I originally wanted to make a waistcoat - mmm...so 1980/1990's. Somehow, I could not find the time to make one but I think it was a question of not being sure if I wanted to be committed to such a 'girly' material which was very very distinct. In the end, 20/30 years later...I am now making the most magical backpack, iPad cover and memo/diary covers from it. 

It is beuatiful as it has a lovely sheen to the fabric. 

Upcycle denim memo/diary covers (4 covers)

These are remaining denim memo/diary covers I made. 

It turned out to be a lot of fun. I had to make sure that every one was different eventhough I had to use the same idea, ie. the red heart trim (for a bit of "made with love") and the denim pocket on the front. This is for your pens, pencils, tissues or whatever you would like. 

 These denim ones were a lot more difficult as I used cut offs of jeans to make the sleeve.  The jeans are also no longer 100% cotton. The newer jeans have 'spandex' in them so that they can stretch and therefore it will be a better fit on the body. Great for a good looking derrière, but regrettably not great for crafting. 

Upcycle memo/diary covers (6 covers)

I like to write in a little book my thoughts, plans and dreams that I have. These thoughts might not always be mine...I also write little things that my children say that I think is very cute. 

In a way, it is a secret diary but since no once really knows what the covered little book is, by secrets are always save. Then again, in my family, there are no real secrets. I tell my children everything and I think that is way we have such an unique relationship. I would like to think that I do treat them as if they are adults, but I also tend to be a real mom and can nag them too if some things aren't done.  I listen to by teenagers' (16) music....it's not that bad really (or maybe his taste is very mature!).  I also play my little one's game of Clash of Clans. I am not really sure about this game - but it brings me closer to my 12 year old and it means a lot to him.
