Camera Strap Cover Tutorials


Last week I whipped up these cute DSLR camera strap covers for myself and a girlfriend. They just slip right over the Canon and Nikon strap that comes with your camera. They are super handy since they have a little pocket to hold your lense cap and are padded for extra comfort on your neck. Ok so we havent really learned to use our cameras yet but at least they look cute.


Wanna make your own??
Here are some great camera strap tuToRiALs

Easy To Make Coat Hook

Not too long ago this is where my daughters coats could often be found. 

To nip the mess in the you know what, I made this coat hook for her belongings.

Like many other projects of mine it was cheap and easy.

{You will need}
* a piece of wood cut to desired length
(dont have tools to cut? Places like home depot will cut wood for you)
* hooks
* paint
* stain (optional)
* vinyl letters or numbers to personalize

Lets get to work

1. Paint your wood and let it dry completely
2. Sand the edges if you want the distressed look and
stain if you desire. I always do, it gives it more of a finished look and protects.
3. Screw on your hooks. I used 4.
4. Add your vinyl whether it be your children's names or numbers or symbols.
5. Hang your new coat hook on the wall and give yourself a pat on the back because you no longer have coats on the floor.
