An Etsy-preneur has created what might be the cutest phone accessory of all time: a hand-stitched felt iPhone case ($38). The all-felt pseudo iPhone exterior even comes with little felt app icons. You can almost hear the squeeees coming through the internets!
The case is purportedly used to protect your touch-screen talky box from scratches and your other pocketware. But who are they kidding? This felt sleeve is an adorable icebreaker that will let people know that you are an adorable person with adorable sensibilities.
The same Etsyan also offers a leather version of the iPhone case ($45.75), but if you’re the kind of person who finds this concept adorable and buys things on sites like Etsy, then there is a good chance that you are friends with vegans. Which is cool. And I’m sure your vegan friends would be cool if they saw your new leather iPhone case, because they’re the kind of vegans who tout their lifestyle choices by quiet example, not by browbeating. They never said a word when you both went to that new restaurant featuring neo-American pub fare and you ordered that veal burger with a fried egg on top and then didn’t finish it. They never bring up the time in college you bought that pair of leather pants and let them sit in your closet because you didn’t feel confident enough to pull off the leather-pants look. But, deep down inside, they are judging both you and your choices as a consumer. So, for the sake of your social life, go with the felt.
