Martha Stewart has some directions for how to make a monitor cozy from an old issue of Blueprint, which reminded me of the monitor cozies I created for my boyfriend's two monitors last year. Lest you get discouraged by how nice and fancy Martha's version is, just check out the ones I made on my own, with just a bit of quick measuring and side-seam sewing. I also added a lining as well as a decorative fabric, since, like Martha says, it adds a little bit of color to the room.

Of course, hers are made much more carefully, where I'm more of a sew-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of gal. For instance, she adds gussets, and I don't even know what a gusset is.

3But I like the look of my big black monitor always on display......? :]
4I don't get the point of these. To hide the monitor? Protect it from dust? Please explain further, geek.
5those are wicked cuuute!!
6I think it is wicked smart to protect the screens from dust because i am constantly having to clean my screen from dust!
They're great as dust protectors, but I initially made them for him because they were being exposed to direct sunlight, which is not great for LCD screens.
7Freakin' lovin' it!
