[ it is finished ]

Finally! After nearly pulling an almost-falling-asleep-into-the-sewing-machine-eyes-burning-head-nodding type of all-nighter, my camera strap cover is finished! I've had my eye on these covers for a while, and they run about $40.00 if you buy them online. I knew I could come up with something myself by using material from my scrap fabric stash. I didn't spend a dime on this thing! A special thanks to Kevin and Amanda for sharing how to bust out one of these ruffled beauties. Honestly, I will not say that I enjoyed making it. It took two tries to get it right, and just wasn't the pure bliss that I had envisioned that would take place in my pretend-wanna-be-etsy-shop (which truely only exsists in my head). I am very sure it will be more enjoyable the second time around. It just takes that initial first time to get all of the technicalities right. I can say that I am pretty in love what the all-nighter brought to fruition though. I'm talking, in love enough I might attempt this mess 


again in order to have multiple camera strap covers to switch out according to my mood outfit. :) 
Now that... is pure bliss.

 




Look what mirrors and self-timers will get you...








I'm finding that being crafty is my creative outlet, my niche, my thing. Crafting is a tool to make ordinary things your own and unique; something to be proud of! And I'm all about unique, baby.
