Candy bar

I have been using hand-me-down cellphones since 6 years ago. Recently the battery of my current phone is no longer working, it keeps showing low battery and switching itself off despite just being charged for many hours. I found out that there is no replacement battery sold for this model anymore so it is time for a new phone.

Since my spouse and I share a smartphone, I got myself a simple phone as I will use it for sending short messages most of the time. Occasionally I will use it to receive and make voice calls. This is the candy bar phone I bought. It is light and provides the functions that I need.


My sister knitted a phone case for me and then cross stitched some decorations on it. You would be able to guess why this particular decoration was chosen by my sister. ;p

With this phone case, I can now hang my phone by the door so that I do not forget to bring it out with me. Many thanks to my sister for making this for me. :)

    My husband also loves a simple phone as he only needs to make and receive calls.

      The "cloth" used to make the case is hand knitted and then the decorations cross stitched on the "cloth".

    So nice of your sister. This is one unique phone case. So pretty! I can't believe you use such a simple phone. We are IT people. We must follow technology. Haha!

    time to change new phone, Mun! hehehe! That is a nice candy bar, your sister is so thoughtful. Better than buy a case from outside. Not durable.
