DIY Tablet Holders

Save Some Funds With This 'Mamie Janes' Craft Instead of Going to the Store

— May 7, 2013 — Art & Design
This 'Mamie Janes' craft is a less expensive way to hold your iPad. It is quite shocking that some iPad and tablet cases and holders are sometimes more expensive than the gadgets themselves.

Taking inspiration from a rustic Pottery Barn tablet holder, the final result of this craft is an identical looking stand for $33 dollars less. Who knew that combining a wooden cutting board, a scrabble tile holder and a child's building block with glue would result in a holder that looks so well-made you'd think it was from a store.

While this Mamie Janes craft was created explicitly for use with iPads and tablets, this tutorial can also be put to use as a stand for cookbooks. If you've had experience with them, you understand that they never want to stay open.
Trend Themes
1. Affordable DIY Tablet Holders - Opportunity for individuals to save money by creating their own tablet holders instead of buying expensive ones.
2. Repurposing Everyday Objects for Tablet Holders - Innovative ways to repurpose items like wooden cutting boards, scrabble tile holders, and building blocks as tablet holders.
3. Multi-purpose Tablet Holders - Designing tablet holders that can also be used as stands for cookbooks or other items.
Industry Implications
1. Craft and DIY Industry - Opportunity for businesses to provide resources, tutorials, and materials for people interested in making their own tablet holders.
2. Home Decor Industry - Opportunity for home decor companies to offer stylish and affordable tablet holders as a part of their product range.
3. Cookbook and Kitchen Accessories Industry - Opportunity for businesses to create tablet holders that also serve the purpose of holding cookbooks, providing convenience in the kitchen.
