iPad

The most awesome accessory ever. Patterns patterns everywhere trending for life!

I also got a beautiful Cowrie Shell Mudcloth Case from Threads of Change on Etsy. The plan was to make my own case and still is, I still like to support the independently clever, crafty, and artistic too! I am also attempting to step up my photography game…
