Yes, I may be the last person on earth to get an iphone - but I am still beyond excited about it! Living an hour away from the nearest mobile phone retailer has forced me into getting one via the post though - and it should arrive tomorrow morning in my mailbox!
I have heard mixed reports - some can't live without it, some want to throw it off a bridge. But I'm hoping it will enable me to check my emails, run my websites {and my blog!} away from home. I will also be swapping from Telstra to Optus which means I will actually have service at the cottage! Yes, it's true - I have been living without mobile reception which means not receiving texts or calls until I go the five kilometres down the driveway or into town (Yea's 10km away).
But...I am quite paranoid about scratching or cracking the screen. Mr M's brother cracked his and it cost an arm and a leg to fix. The solution? A cool protective cover of course! I wanted one that covered the screen, I looked at a lot of magnetic flip cover ones, but I wanted one that opened from right to left, not bottom to top {hope that makes sense...} Of course I turned to etsy and this is what I found...
From etsy seller Debris Design . This is the style I really wanted - just like a wallet. Not sure if I am a tweed/turquoise kind of girl though...on with the search...
From etsy seller Blythe King . I debated getting a white iphone, but ended up going with the black as if {and when} it gets scratched dirt will sit in their and it won't stay white for long! So I thought a white cover would match my white mac, white keyboard, white mouse. But again, won't stay clean for very long I'm sure...
From etsy seller Yummy Pocket . Yummy Pocket indeed! I just love cupcake motifs and thought this would be so cute to run Little Miss Emma from - but I will also be running my photography business from it and not sure how professional pulling this out of my bag in front of clients looks!
From etsy seller tovicorrie . This is cool! I love hides, I really want to get one for either under our dining table or in front of our fireplace. This is made from leather too so extremely durable and sturdy, but was not the wallet style I wanted and was also a bit out of my price range I had set.
And so I turned to trusty ebay . I found my iphone case. Isn't it pretty? I'm hoping it will arrive in my mailbox tomorrow also so my new iphone can slip right in. I can use it as my wallet as well with the card slots - super handy. Super pink, which is always a bonus, and faux leather so I can wipe clean.

Can I tell you we have an Apple bonanza in our household, and they seem to come in twos: two iPhones, two iPod touches, two iPod shuffles, two Apple computers and one (lonely) iPod. Lots of Apple love here. And, now that I've tasted the iPhone - there's no going back!
