How to Make the World's Easiest Kindle Case
- jrockway 16y agoThe world's easiest case is not cardboard + contact paper + velcro. It's a mitten or something. Step 1: remove mitten from your hand, Step 2: place Kindle inside mitten. That's easy. This is cheap, but probably not the world's cheapest. So the title should probably be "an inexpensive Kindle case that will take an hour and a half of your time to make (including finding all the parts) and will be half-decent". I guess that's not as catchy. Sigh.
- humbledrone 16y agoThat's a pretty cool hack. I must mention, though, that the Amazon branded Kindle case also has the property of not covering the front of the kindle (for a lot more dough).

- djhworld 16y agoNice work. I have the official case from Amazon, the smell of leather is really nice and the case feels good to hold. Might be a bit of a rip off for £30, but it's definitely worth it if you're thinking of buying a case
- burriko 16y agoEven easier is Marco Arment's suggestion of using a standard 6x10 bubble envelope. http://www.marco.org/1131994352 http://www.marco.org/1131994352
- StrawberryFrog 16y agoCame here to say the Uk version of that: an A5 padded envelope from the post office. It's not that durable, lasting about a month the way that I throw it in my backpack, but it costs under £1.
- jonhendry 16y agoI use one of those, inside a stiff cardboard envelope as is used for mailing things that shouldn't be bent, like photos.
- wglb 16y agoLooks quite nice and inexpensive and useful, but not sure I would call it "easy".
