cosy-cam

So is it just me or does anyone else have an uneasy feeling of being watched, when you are blogging or surfing craft blogs in your skimpy pjs late at night while munching on massive bags of nachos and chilli dip....and the webcam is just staring you full in the face....it's creepy right???

A connection to the voyeuristic world of the internet and a working camera pointed at you during your "personal time"... it really isn't particularly comforting to say..."the webcam programme isn't on, so just relax!". But iiiis it off?? Are you suuuure??

Enough of this! And enough of the scrap of ripped CD case that i drape over it when im feeling its little lens boring into me! Enter camera cosy!! This is how it works....it creeps up beside a webcam that it sees just hanging about innocently on the top of your screen, you know, inching along...bit by bit...

...and then POUNCES!! The creepy little peeping-cam is enveloped inside a cosy...won't that make interesting viewing for the hypothetical people spying on me during "personal-pj-time"
Haha! O the satisfaction there is in foiling fictional conspiracy plots! I'm on to you webcams-of-the-world!!

Picture-esque!! if you get the pun! Great idea and yes I know what you mean about not quite knowing if the camera is on or not!! Your cover really looks the business!! How DO you do it? XOX

hehe - I know exactly what you mean, I loved how the wee cammi snuck up on the web cam! (It's your camera's camisole - haha) oh dear - bedtime for me.

haha we are all so alike! i hate web-cams as i fear they never really switch off and that could be dangerous! i saw this on your tv the other day but i didnt realise it had a button over the front - i just thought it was the lens of the camera poking through so i thought you had made a camera cosy rather than a cover which is a great idea but not very useful - a camera cover on the other hand is invaluable!!! the niute i get a web-cam im commissioning one of these guys!!
