I saw on here or maybe it was a blog? that you can buy a journal and take out all the pages so you only have the binding and use it for a case for your kindle. I did that and then added some elastic and for $3 i have a case
Directions:
1) I went to Big Lots and in their school supply section I bought a basic journal (think small journal/diary type) and made it a tad bigger than my kindle. Paid $3+tax
2) I came home and ripped out all the pages.
3)Then where the binding was showing, i took Black electrical tape and covered the binding where it ripped. (the inside is black but binding was white).
4)Then i used basic glue and glued a couple pcs of elastic and done!
Id post pics but we dont have a camera. I can try to scan it in the computer later, but im not sure how well it would show up.
