Title: a 30 minute project
Post by: Lady Gryphon on April 21, 2012, 05:11:37 PM
I don't know where to put this, but here goes

I am sick of my Camera strap ruining the look of my garb,  Every photo that is taken of me has the ugly Nikon strap.  So I took a Baldric we had laying around and not using, and I put grommets in the ends, now it will look like a piece of garb.  

It was a quick project, but it should make everything look better and I don't have to try and hide my camera anymore.

That sounds great!

I wear our point&shoot on my belt, and several years ago I got tired of the way the case looked--so I sewed a gold filigree ornament to it (http://pic50.picturetrail.com/VOL417/1033223/23241773/391536489.jpg)! It's not fooling anybody, but it does look more "festive," I guess.  ;D

This is why I did not ask it of you, Lord Gauwyn! I can not stand another eyebleaching!

Thanks to my handsome model  I now have a photo of my quick project.  It  looks like a baldric if someone want my photo and is a very sturdy Camera strap otherwise.  I can quickly tuck the Nikon behind me in the folds of my skirt and nobody knows the difference.
