Kindle Case

Hey everybody!Has anybody done the book challenge yet? I sure did! My cute sister-in-law just barely got an Amazon Kindle and didn't buy a case yet. She was carrying around the kindle with a dishtowel around it. I made her  this case yesterday. 
 I would show you the inside of the case, but the pictures didn't turn out very well.If you are wondering where I got this last idea just check out my last post. Also if you want to find out what an Amazon Kindle is or about it click HERE. I hope all of you try to the challenge of making something with a book. Keep Crafting!

The girl in the video made hers for her Kindle, but you can make it for any electronic reader. I got a Nook Color a few weeks ago. If you don't know what a Nook Color this is what it looks like.

Well their cases are kind of expensive and I want to change it up. I already bought one, but I saw this case and thought it was way cute. This is what mine looks like.
This is the inside of the case.
 I am going to start doing goals for all of you readers. I want you guys to all make something out of a book. It could be a case or make something out of the pages in the book. Then you can tell me what you made and I will put your project on my blog. If you guys need to contact me for any reason or just for a quick question you can email me at craftysavvy@gmail.com

Feathers and Flowers

Hey Crafters! It has been way too long since I have posted. In December, our family went to New York for a family vacation. While I was there I went to the M&J Trimmings storeIt is a really fun store and website, so go check it out! Here are a few things that I made.
They already came as the zipper flower so I glued them to alligator clips on the back of the flower to put in my hair.(I got mine at Hobby Lobby) I also got feather patches and glued them on headbands. You can get headbands at Hobby Lobby or even your grocery store. Here are a few that I made.
 This next headband was made with feather ribbon.
 This next flower I got the idea from I am Momma Hear Me Roar. Then she got the tutorial from Trey and Lucy's blog. Check out theirs! It was really fun to make. I made it with a great friend and had a fun time!
Here is another cute flower that was way fun! It requires no sewing, only hot glue! Make sure to not burn your fingers, because I sure did! I also got this idea from                I Am Momma Hear Me Roar. 
She got the pattern from Vanessa at V and Co. This is how mine turned out!
 Sorry my pictures aren't very well! I hope all of you crafters are enjoying my blog! Do any of you have any suggestions? Please leave your comments. Keep Crafting!
