Blinged Phone Case



My son once joked that if it sat still long enough I would decorate it. LOL
Well, I guess he is right. I was thinking that my cell phone case was a little plain. I know there are lots of cases out there that are already blinged out, but I love the way this case opens and stands up. The solution turned out to be easy. I just added some Recollections bling. I did have to make a few adjustments to make it fit right. That was an easy fix by trimming and turning the individual flourishes. The adhesive that the gems comes on was handy in transferring and keeping the design in place, but it was not strong enough to hold on something that will be handled at lot. I just put some strong craft glue on a scrap of paper and applied tiny drops of glue under each gem with a straight pin. Yes, it took a while, but hey I have time since I am still recovering. :)

I am sure I will loose a few stones along the way. I have extra bling that came from the same set so I can replace them as needed.
