Glo I made a holder for my Glo.

mystika1 · 04-25-2013, 08:49 PM

Hi,
I wanted to post a couple of pictures of the holder that I made for my Glo. I had been wanting to make a cover but I didn't want something to add bulk. I read at night in bed and also wanted to make something easy to hold. I added a strap to the back. The strap makes me more confortable walking around the house...I was afraid to drop it on the floor. I also like to read in the bathtub and the strap keeps the unit pretty safe from the water. I still have access to all buttons and the charger cord. If you like to sew...this is a fun project and works well for keeping fingerprints off of the back of the unit.

Very nice. Now you need to go to ETSY or somewhere similar and cash in! Four snaps in the corners and you can add an optional front cover.

Nice!! I made a sleeve for my Mini last night but it is not as unique in design as yours!

That is awesome!

I initially misread the title of this thread to be, "I made a holster for my Glo."

Pretty fabric and I like the handle

I love the handle where you can strap it to your hand.

I think that my favorite part was making the handle. I really needed the handle cause when I would read on my side at night my husband would roll over and cause the unit to fall forward. My finger would tap the screen and I would have to start finding my page. It really does help also when I am in the bathtub...I can really enjoy the book now. I will make a matching sleeve to keep the Glo safe when not in use. I may try to make one in leather.

I really like your idea and the design. I will try to do something similar in neoprene.
