Gallery of Instrument Cases- Ukulele Case #2

This ukulele was also made by my husband, for my son. I made this case so it could hang on the wall vertically, taking up less space. A thin batting layer is in between the light blue flannel lining and the cowboy outside fabric.
A drawstring closes the top.






Simple but it gets the job done- protects this ukulele when my little cowboy goes riding the range!

Gallery of Instrument Cases- Ukulele Case

This ukulele case is simpler than the mandolin because it only has a front and back. The mandolin case (previous post) has sides like a box. The cushioning is batting (instead of green foam) and much easier to work with. The handles are a cotton sash folded in half.



My daughter made the zipper charm from Shrinky Dink- a plastic that you bake and it shrinks up.


I lined the case in a moire taffeta. My husband made the ukulele.
