Blissdom Tote Bag -- I need YOUR vote!

I made it through another week at So You Think You're Crafty...by the skin of my teeth!  This all star round has some crazy talent!  The theme this week is "For Me".  I froze when I got to this week.  Completely stumped as what to make.  Most of the time I start out making something "for me" and someone else in the house claims it for themselves.  What could I make that truly would be for me?  I am headed to Blissdom this week and that seemed to be the perfect excuse to make myself something.  That is how my Blog Conference Tote Bag idea came to be.  Please head on over and vote for my project on So You Think You're Crafty...pretty please!

I started with a tote bag I owned from Nest of Posies.  The point is being able to turn any bag you own into your own blog conference bag.  A bag that has a place to put all of your gadgets PLUS room for your wallet and some swag to boot.  I designed a drawstring camera bag that can literally be thrown into any bag or purse -- not just for blog conferences.  It helps to protect your camera while being stylish.  I will have a detailed tutorial for it after the voting ends.

Other items in the bag include a stylish laptop sleeve, a small zippered pouch for your power cord, etc, and a ruffled camera strap to show off your craftiness.  I will link you to all of those tutorials in a post next week.

This project is just for me!  And ya know what?  It feels great to have made something for myself for a change.  I think we all ought to take the "for me" challenge occasionally.  Please head on over to So You Think You're Crafty and vote!  I can guarantee you these crazy talented ladies have a great line up for you this week!
