5 minute project: Camera/Gadget Cozy

Some days you just NEED to craft, even if it is only for 5 minutes. For this reason I have decided to TRY to post one 5 minute project to my blog each week. This week's project: A camera cozy for my new camera.

I LOVE this camera, but I'm worried that the LCD screen with get scratched. This is my solution.


Materials needed: 
1 sock
sewing machine

Turn your sock inside out.


Hold your camera/ipod/ etc. against the sock to see how much room you need.
Sew across the bottom. You can do a straight line, but I tried it both ways and I like the look of a little more rounded.




Turn right side out and drop your camera into the case.


My camera already has a strap, but if you want a handle just turn the case inside out and sew the ends of a piece of ribbon/fabric to the sides.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

  4. I happen to like the camera. It is compact and very handy. The best part is 14 mega pixels.
