    Notes

    A PopSocket, an accessory for a cellphone/mobile phone, done in floral beadwork by artist Jennie Kappenman. A PopSocket attaches to the back of a cellphone case, and serves as a handle or grip and also as a stand for the phone. It is decorated with a floral design, created with glass beads sewn onto a leather covering. beads used for the decoration are green, pink, gold, white and blue in color. A light mylar barrier covers the adhesive layer on the back of the popsocket. The adhesive is used to adhere the popsocket to a cellphone case. Also, an undecorated thermoplastic polymer cellphone/mobile phone case in translucent blue forms a set with the PopSocket. There is no removeable case liner. Portals created in the case provide access to phone buttons and plugs.
