Looking for that perfect teacher gift?

There are quite a few cute teacher fabrics out this year! This apple fabric I found seems perfect for a teacher gift. Are you always giving teachers the typical "apple" themed gift? Why not change it up a little this year. This fabric will be perfect. It has the apples in the print still, but they are a little more casual and stylish. :) Looking for a cheap teacher gift? A teacher gift for about 5 dollars? How about this teacher key fob? Wanting something a little more? Why not add a matching teacher - apple phone case or teacher - apple kindle case?

And so you know, with the key fobs, you can add embroidery to the teacher gift for 2.00 extra. That way you can have a cute personalized teacher gift for under 10 dollars.

Business or Addiction? Fabraholic?

Can I get away with being a fabricholic as long as it is for business purposes? LOL I hope so because my mom and I have found so many cute new fabrics lately for our Kindle Cases, Kindle Sleeves, iPad cases, Phone Cases, and iPod cases! These are just a few pictures of new fabrics that we have purchased in the last month to make our phone and kindle cases.

I wish I had a Kindle, IPad or Ereader of some type!

There are many things I would LOVE to have if I had a little extra spending money. One of those things I might have to add to the list is Kindle. Or an IPad for that matter. :) My mom and I have been making cute and funky kindle covers lately to sell on etsy. I have a "fake" kindle that I use to take picture and match the correct size. And seeing how cute the kindle looks in the fun, funky and cute kindle cases makes me want one! Now I must say, I am in college. This is my last semester. I am a little busy reading school books for now, but I promise if I can afford a Kindle one I will do my part and read read read! :) After all, I make key fobs and use one for myself, and I make Kindle covers, so shouldn't I be using one for myself? Be sure to take a peak at PuppyDogsNPolkaDots and let me know what you think of our newest venture in the handmade world with these handmade funky kindle covers!

Featured on The Storque - Etsy's Handmade Blog

Just a quick little note to share my excitement! As you may or may not know, my mom and I have started making phone/ipod cases as well as Kindle, Nook, Ereader Covers and Cases. We have been working hard on making all sorts of varieties and styles of Kindle Covers. Well, when I searched for PuppyDogsNPolkaDots as I do every now and again to see where my store has been featured or talked about, I ran across this page: http://www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/etsy-finds-lazy-hazy-days-10177/

I thought to myself hmmm...what could be going on here with my name involved? So I took a peak and scrolled down the page a little and there it was!!! One of the Kindles that my mom and I had teamed up to make was featured on The Storque - Etsy's Handmade Blog!! This was late last night, to late to call my parents house because they were probably asleep. So I had to hold all of my excitement in until this morning when I was able to call my mom and share the excitement with her! We really did appreciate this from the blogger who decided to feature a PuppyDogsNPolkaDots Kindle Cover - Nook Cover since we have been working day and night to create cute new styles!

Why I love summertime...

I am a Florida girl for anyone who didn't know. Which means that I love warm weather and love summertime. Family beach trips, palm trees, swimming and the beach are just a few things that I love about summer. I was just looking through a few pictures, some old, some new and thought I would share a few of my summertime photos. What do you love about summer?

Where can I get a cute Kindle Case - Cover - Sleeve?

Living in Florida guarantees lots of rain!! So this 4th of July weekend when we got rained out from the outdoor activities, my mom and I headed to the sewing room and started to create a few new items!

One new item that we created is a cover for a Kindle. This case is super cute and useful as well. I do not own a Kindle, but having these cases sitting here makes me want to purchase a Kindle!

This Kindle can be made custom for you! If you have a particular fabric in mind, let me know and we will make you a custom Kindle cover! We have many cute Sis Boom, Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry, Yui Kokeshi Dolls, and many more!

What can I get my child's teacher for teacher appreciation?

Ever find yourself wondering that very question about teacher appreciation gifts? Many different mothers have decided to go the handmade route this year as the end of the year is approaching. I have had many different orders just for teachers. They have been everything from the normal key fob to key fobs with the teacher's name embroidered on it. It seems that teacher appreciation gifts can become quite expensive, well this is a relatively cheap teacher appreciation gift that is still unique and can be personalized with their name on it. I was impressed by how many orders I have had for teacher gifts. What a cute idea. Now, I just hope the various teachers out there will love the key fobs the receive!!
