Kindle and Nook, meet your cases

Hubby got me a little gift. . . a Nook Color. He's putting Android on it (thereby nulling its warranty) so that I can use it as a tablet. Last year he got me a Kindle, but I'd put off getting a case for it. I've been wanting something from Oberon Design, but there were so many choices it was hard to decide on just one. When I found out I had a Nook coming to me as well, it was a little easier and I ordered them together. The cases came yesterday:

 The left one for the Kindle is Tree of Life, in Chocolate; the right one is Roof of Heaven, in Marigold. The backs are a continuation of the scenes, but I forgot to take pictures of them.

The Nook is a little bigger than the Kindle and noticeably heavier. I'm happier to keep the Kindle for reading, and the Nook-cum-tablet for as yet unknown purposes. The cases came with two little corresponding charms (that rather match the two cases I ordered), I haven't figured out what I'm going to do with them. They're a little big to go on a charm bracelet (and pewter, besides) and I don't regularly wear necklaces anymore.

At home Hubby has been repainting our bedroom. It was originally supposed to take a week, but that was in the middle of August. Since then, it's been on the weekends here and there. This weekend we're supposed to look for white spots and do the baseboards. We've been out of our bedroom for three weekends now. Hopefully I'll have some pictures of that after we're all done.

  1. The cases are beautiful!

    The Nook Color isn't e-ink, right? I look forward to hearing what you end up using it for!
