my friend uses her sock for her phone (this is a bit like samis) but if you think thats too boring you could sass it up with patches of fabric(from old clothes or fabrics youve never used) or buttons(that have fallen off clothes or the extra ones that come with shirts and coats) and bows (off hairbands, sew a pretty pattern on or a heart or something and zips (from a fleece or something) and this is a really wacky idea you could chop a tie to make it a lot smaller about the same size as your ipod then make it a bit like a belt for your ipod! and put ribbon on. You could get these things from the places ive said in brackets or you can get newrly all of it from a charity shop (I LOVE CHARITY SHOPS!)

you could make a gadget protector from the pockets of some old jeans : http://www.instructables.com/id/Protect-the-Tech/

or you could sew yourself a cover from scraps of fabric, leave holes for the screen – you could sew a panel made from old plastic bottle , or part of an old plastic wallet , or clear pencilcase (maybe one with a broken zip?) into it as a screen protector.

i don’t know how you’d do it, but you could build a small stand for it from odds and ends like bottletops and used up pens.
hope this helps =D

baby socks make nice phone socks if you have extras that don’t have mates

Crafting a Green World has suggested
(http://craftingagreenworld.com/2009/01/15/yearn-worthy-yarn-cassette-tape) using old cassette tapes, like Girl on the Rocks
