Lucky

Well, I know I told you after I refinished my desk I would tell you all about the other project I worked on that day...but I haven't had a chance to get the finishing touches for it, so you have to wait a little longer :)

Meanwhile, I collected the final bits of materials I needed to start building inventory of my Easy Kindle Covers to sew for the craft fair!

Aren't they yummy?!

 Once I read through the instructions I wrote and followed them to make a cover, I realized how impractical they were for someone who didn't know what they were doing, so expect an updated version to that tutorial soon! Perhaps accompanied with step-by-step photos.

Why am I giving out the pattern for something I'm selling? It's easy: I believe everyone is entitled to cute things. If you want to buy these from me, that's awesome! If you have a passion for sewing and want to make your own from your pile of swagger fabric, that is awesome too.

Speaking of cute: check out the one I made last night.

Love the pinks/oranges in these patterns. So playful and bright.

Maybe if you're lucky I will do a giveaway for one :-) Would anyone like that?

In addition to these adorable Kindle Cases, I'll be selling iPad cases and Christmas ornaments. Oh, and a few funky, fun furniture pieces refinished by yours truly. You won't want to miss it!! December 15th at Fremd High School. Be there! 

Keep your eyes peeled - I will also be opening my Etsy shop by the end of the year. It's good to be Sparkles and Crafts!!

P.S. And unrelated: OUR NEW DECK WAS STARTED TODAY! Can't wait to show you the before & after transformation :)

Have a safe & happy holiday weekend! I'll be at the flea market digging for some vintage pieces with @CBGeneva. Can't wait!
