This super easy craft will allow you to change the look of your iPhone without buying 10,000 cases to do it. Yay saving $$!
Cost: $25 including buying the case
Difficulty Level: easy-ish
First, order this ultra clear, thin iPhone case from SwitchEasy. It's the clearest one I've found (no opaqueness, and no logos on the back!) Switch Easy NUDE Ultra Clear case
Then, go buy thin scrapbook paper. NO GLITTER!! It will scratch your phone and your case. I also got some thin plastic lace patterned paper. It feels like a transparency
Pick a paper, flip it over to the back, and trace your case. Use PENCIL so it doesn'y mark up the case. Also trace the camera hole.
*Cut out the pattern and make sure it fits in the case. This takes some trimming.
*Now for the harder part--cut out the camera hole. I found it easiest to use a hole punch to get the curve over the flash, and then just used scissors to go over the camera. *Maybe you're more deft with an xacto and can do this nicely. I can't.
Line up your paper in the case, and snap your phone in.**Take couple photos with and without the flash to make sure there is no paper in the way**
Repeat with other patterns and colors. Now you can change the case as much as you change your outfit!
Have fun and get creative. You can add photos, quotes, drawings, anything on paper!
