The boyfriend got a new DSLR camera for Christmas, and with it came the obligatory handmade accessories, courtesy me and my Etsy search savvy. Here’s a picture he took of his goodies:

First up is a hand-decorate DSLR camera strap made by ManonD. The strap itself is a professional commercial strap, but has been jazzed up with a cool fabric.

But the main gift was a custom camera bag. I picked out all of the fabrics for him, and the wonderful lady behind Wicked Stitch Designs put it all together! I was super-pleased with the result. The bag was ridiculously well-made, and is th eperfect size to hold all his accessories and camera, safely and securely.

Speaking of bags, after Christmas I bought myself a little present too! I spent something like 2 weeks searching for the perfect bag, and finally I came upon this lovely bag by Elizabeth Gwen Originals, shown below:

And meanwhile, what was I doing the whole Christmas season?
