Happy Black Friday !

Happy Black Friday everyone! For those of you who observed Thanksgiving Day yesterday, I do hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner last night. Most of us are aware that after the Thanksgiving Dinner..it is followed by Black Friday, it's the start of Holiday Shopping, Yay!  There's a lot of good deals that are so hard to resist. Shop Till You Drop Mantra! Lol! 

Today I have a Black Friday project for you. I decided to start making my handmade gifts for friends yesterday. I chose to make this super easy Kindle Case. This is actually included on my 12 Days of Christmas Crafts Tutorial E-Book. 

This case can be used as Kindle Case, Ipad Case or Case for any Electronic Tablets. This can also be used as your Bible Case.

If you want to know more about the step-by-steps instructions, you can check my 2nd Edition of 12 Days of Christmas. Or you can email me to jinky@jinkyscrafts.com if you only want this specific tutorial so I can send you an invoice.

Hello Friends! Welcome to Day 11 of my 12 Days of  Christmas Handmade Crafts (2nd Edition). For Day 11, I would like to share a project for the men in our lives. Sometimes, they are the hardest people to find holiday gifts for. But you probably know that almost every man loves his gizmos.

Besides, when it is Handmade it is "Heartmade" so you can be sure every man in your life will appreciate receiving this handmade Kindle Case.  This versatile case can also double for IPads or Android devices.

This Felt Kindle Case is super easy and super fast to make, yet it looks very elegant and presentable.  Another great thing is this project requires minimal supplies.  I used Felt, Ribbon and eyelets- That's it!

So obviously, this is the 2nd to the last project before the release of the 12 Days of Christmas E-Book. Make sure to stay tuned because Day 12 project is coming up and that means the E-Book will be ready and available for you.

Felt Handmade Cell Phone Pouch/Case

Today, for our Day 6 of the 14 Days of Handmade Valentine Crafts. I decided to sew a phone case/pouch using felt. I have never done a similar felt sewing projects before so please bear with my sewing skills. I know, I need more practice, but hey, the concept is pretty easy. With just a few pieces of a felt + needle + thread, you can make a handmade pouch/case for your phone. The good news is, it is very inexpensive craft and you can customized the design you want. 

I used the top note pattern in making this case, it is perfect for anyone with basic stitching skills like me. You can measure your phone to make sure it will fit. In this case, I used my Cricut in making the template,  I cut it at 4½"using the Accent Essentials Cricut Cartridge . Just blanket stitch the sides of 2 top note felt. This will be the body of your case. Make sure not to sew the opening side together. 

Again, with the help of my Cricut Machine, I cut my embellishment design from the Holiday Cakes Cricut Cartridge. 

Depending how fast you sew, this project can be done in less than an hour as long as you do not go crazy with the design. 

Now, you can make more designs and you can change your phone case as much as Lindsay Lohan change her hair color..lol !
