This Lil' Birdie is Obsessed: Phone Cases

So... I have a confession... I am absolutely obsessed with new phone cases.

I started with this one...

Speck Case for iPhone4 (Darkest Tartan Plaid)

Then Apple gave us all free phone cases so I got this one...

Apple iPhone4 Bumper in Pink

And then I decided I needed another one because this one didn't "protect" enough (aka: I'm extremely clumsy and dropped my phone a LOT!) so I got this one...

Speck iPhone4 CandyShell in Black

But these are all so boring...and... well, functional.  I wanted something more fun.  

So I set out to find a phone cover that was pretty :)

At first I thought I liked this one...

DSStylesTiki Turquoise iPhone4 Case

But then I thought I'd get sick of the color (even though it really is pretty).

So then I fell in love with this one...

DsStyles Abstract Series Pink iPhone4 Case

And while I still love this lovely albeit garrishly loud phone case, this one stole my heart (along with my wallet)...

Barcelona Tech Candy iPhone 4 Case 

Wait... wait... it gets better...

Yep, it comes with TWO inner cases and the cute little outer case...

I LOVE !!   Get one for yourself :)

P.s. Tech Candy has no idea who I am apart from sending me my order; I'm not endorsing anything :)

This Lil' Birdie has a New Child

I am so excited to introduce you to the newest member of my little household.

No, it's not another puppy.  The boyfriend would probably have a conniption fit because he doesn't much like the one I already have...

Hi Puppy!

But that's not my story.  I have a new family member.  Her name shall be Susanne.  Because she's a sewing machine and I like to name things...

Isn't Susanne pretty?  She may not be the highest quality machine out there, but she's a hard worker.  And let's be honest, after the last one breaking every 5 stitches, anything that works is accepted around here.

I'm very excited to get started on some new projects I've been working on!  Like this ruffled tree skirt from Prudent Baby 

Or perhaps I'll start with a skirt for myself from Stop Staring and Start Sewing...

Or maybe I'll just figure out how to use this thingiemadoo...

It's called a ruffler foot and it's mine all mine all mine thanks to the sweet boyfriend a little holiday we like to call Valentine's Day... yep, this was my present.  I'm very excited.

He got this...

Captains of Crush

No, really.  That's what he wanted so that's what he got.  Seriously, could we be more gender stereotype specific?

Anywho, off to go play with the newest member of the family... I'll be sure to share whatever it is I make or make a mess of!
