Postal Delight: eReader Cover

From Monday until Thursday, my sister & I visited my dad & his wife in Montana. It was snowy & beautiful, but definitely quite cold! We had good food (Elk steak & a salad? Yes, please!), met some nice people, watched Dinner for Schmucks, did lots of reading, & went on a short cross-country skiing adventure (my first time - I'd do it again!).

When I got home on Thursday evening, I had a box waiting for me. I already knew what it was & couldn't wait to open it up!


It was the case for my eReader that I ordered on Etsy!



I'm so pleased with how it turned out. I ordered four of them (one for me, three for family members) from shellvollaro's shop, & she was amazing - so nice & speedy, & she even offered to embroider my name on the pocket for free. For only $30 + free shipping for two or more cases, it's a steal. The only other cases I found for my eReader (a Pandigital Novel) were either (a) the same price, without free shipping, & way less cute or (b) super expensive. I would absolutely recommend ordering one from her shop. She has other leathers as well as some lovely black & white printed fabric & has lots of custom options.

I can't wait to start reading & surfing the web on the move with the protection of my lovely new case!

On another note, I need to make a late New Years Resolution to start taking more attractive photos for my blog. I'm sorry you guys have to see these!

  1. That is super cute!! Personally, I have a weird philosophical aversion to eReaders based on my obsession with the smell of old, well-loved books and the feel of paper. BUT that is a really cute case.
    In other news, thank you for being so supportive of my blog. Your comments and stuff are always so sweet and I really do appreciate it, even if I rarely post :)

  2. Oh I definitely understand your aversion. I probably would never buy one myself, but since it was a gift I figured I'll appreciate its positive aspects & still read good ol' hardbacks & paperbacks, too. I could go on forever about the pros & cons (& I probably will at some point soon).
    And you're welcome - you're a unique person, & I think it's great that you have a blog to express yourself on. I'm sure your tumblr is very exciting, but I just never make it over there once I'm caught up on Blogger :.P Thanks for the comment!

  3. I think the graphics on your blog are sooo cute! Who did them? Do they do things like resumes too? Judging by the clean look and neutrally subtle colours, I bet they'd do an awesome job if they did redesign resumes!
