my cute friend sent me this cute website showing this cute keyboard. the one on my screen down there…
i got really excited and in about 25 minutes i had my own cute keyboard.
and that made me really really happy. and it made my fingers really happy because basically they feel like they’re typing on little candy cubes.
so thank you Eng Gee Fan for your genius idea that filled me with the desire for cuteness.
from los angeles to kuala lumpur xoxoxo

So I’m wondering if I can drop off my keyboard for a little customization… no rush.

OMG! This isn’t something new at the Apple Store, you did this with TAPE! Mary Ann, you are truly my hero! What a great mind you have!
Mary Ann Moss says
its pretty easy to do. i did it while transferring pics from ipad to imac…snip snip snip
the tape is on really securely. i dont see it peeling up any time soon. the constant tapping of the keys seems to prevent that.
love the reaction i get when people come over and see it. FUN in more ways than one!!!
Barbara Hagerty says
I want one!
Shannon Ganshorn says
ADORABLE!!

Brrrilliant! I have a habit of tapping my keyboard like I’m still on a typewriter (that’s right, I’m THAT old) and I have to replace my keys because I WEAR THE LETTER OFF!…this is a great solution. From Q-Pop, right?…..so many fresh and fabulous ideas around this joint….

What a wonderful use of those very fun transparent tapes. Not the same on a black keyboard. Glorious weekend dear…
Susie LaFond says
That is one seriously happy keyboard. FUN! I knew you’d do it. VBG.
Mary Beth says
Well that is just too darn cute 🙂 Hope you are having a wonderful New Year!!

Note to self – do not read Dispatches from L.A. before eating breakfast, else you will find yourself spending half an hour taping cute little bits of decorative tape to your keyboard while your stomach growls in protest. Because I had to.

Did you hand cut every piece of tape by your little self? Definitely impressed/awed/wowed and open-mouthed. Very precise cutting, can’t tell if you rounded corners as well. Also, you seem to have a broad selection of tapes.. fun. I can now imagine you tripping (literally and figuratively) through the cottage embellishing more surfaces with tape-y goodness. Onward M.A.!
Laurie J.M. says
Gorgeous. But maybe a little too anal for me, as far as cutting the tapes just right. Won’t they peel off soon?
Karen says
Super cute!!! My Mac envy just went up a few notches too!

For some reason it has struck my funny bone — I am laughing out loud! Totally grooooovy! Donna

I thought about it awhile back for a hot second, but then I realized that because I have no feeling in my hands, I often have to look at the keys to get the right words to appear and if I cover up the letters, I’d be kind screwed, so I didn’t. Adorable though, truely.
Oh and I love your new header for your blog. Very lovely, indeed. xo

C.U.T.E.! 😀

Crap – I had that idea years ago when tripping on Acid — not the small pill form easy to sallow drug, but the kind you make when you mix bleach and that other cleaning stuff and fumes seize your bronchioles and you get a head rush. Waaaaaaah, I could’a been a keyboard contender!
Debbie Jordan says
Really cute! Love the idea. Are you aware you can pair your wireless keyboard with your iPad? It’s handy for typing longer notes.
Chelsy says
How clever!
