When I purchased my precious Kindle, one item I thought about was the cover. Amazon has tons of them, but they are pricey and boring to boot. I went ahead and ordered my Kindle with the idea that I would make my own cover, but then it occurred to me that I should also check Etsy to see if anyone over there made them already.
Sure, at some point I could make one myself, but right now I don’t have the time, and I wanted to be able to bring my Kindle with me wherever I go and keep it protected. Plus, as a seller on Etsy I also try to support other sellers whenever possible, and voila, I found the perfect Kindle cover over at Dana Designs. I love the material on this one because it has a classic look to it and sort of matches my taste in reading the classics as well. I also like how this has a flap. I saw tons of them over there, but this design stood out to me.
The screen on a Kindle definitely needs some protection if you plan to tote yours around, so do a search on “kindle covers” over at Etsy to find out lots of pretty covers to choose from.

Thanks for the great tip, Tammy. I have one of those boring Amazon covers and would love to replace it with something more artsy and unique.
