OOAK Handpainted IPhone Cover


I had an idea, as you might know by now... I am an idea person.


I had been looking at wooden phone covers on Etsy for months now 
( like this one from EXOvault )
 After spending a fortune at the Apple Store for my phone,  
I decided I would have to wait for my coveted wooden cover...
While browsing the internet, I found a clear cover for only $3.99 with free shipping.

Tossing thoughts of the wooden cover aside for now...
   I decided to create an original watercolor,
Trim it to fit under the plastic cover and Enjoy!

Opendoorhandmade.etsy.com is open for business!

I have recently opened my newest shop OpendoorHandmade.etsy.com.
There you will find many handmade items. I have begun a "line" of greeting tags.
The line includes my original artwork in little collections ...
"it's your birthday" , " your home"," wedding day", "wild things", " project pink", "be mine", " couture collection", " Easter blessings", "be well"... and many others!

I hope you will stop by to see my original illustrations. Each is painted with watercolor and then pen and ink line drawing over top. Each illustration is signed and dated and can make a cute little art collection... just add a frame!

My lines will be growing to include cards and other handmades.

I will be adding my handmade scarves as well, once i get rolling.

I hope you will stop by and see what is new!
