How to Design Your Own Snap-On Phone Cover

Snap-on covers protect cell phones.

Snap-on phone covers serve a dual purpose for housing cell phones. Originally designed as a protective measure, snap-on phone covers guard a cell phone against damage. Covers are also a way to show off your personality through fashion, the same way your wardrobe does. Snap-on phone covers can be designed to suit your needs and sense of fashion.

Things You'll Need

• Glue
• Tweezers
• Toothpick
• Rhinestones
• Scrapbook embellishments

Instructions

1. Purchase a clear snap-on phone cover that fits your phone. Discounted phone cases can be purchased from sites such as eBay.

2. Locate a craft store that has a scrapbook section. Purchase flat-back scrapbook embellishments and rhinestones.

3. Clean your snap-on phone cover thoroughly so the embellishments will adhere properly. Use soap and water.

4. Lay out the embellishments on your snap-on phone cover before gluing. Fill in the remaining areas with the rhinestones.

5. Glue the embellishments and rhinestones to the snap-on cover. Hold the decorations with your tweezers. Dab the toothpick into a small amount of glue and apply it to the embellishments. Press the embellishments firmly to the snap-on cover.

Tips & Warnings

• Epoxy-based glues last the longest.
