ARTS: A New Face for an Old Case

Yesterday, after I took my own “holiday”, I had a very good rest in the morning, but didn’t know what to do in the afternoon. At first I watched TV, but there are no good movies, so I turned it off, and just browsed some of my old magazines. And that gave me an idea on how I am going to spend the rest of the day – a DIY phone casing.

So I grab my tools and start laying them down. Here’s what we need:

An old phone casing.

Pair of scissors

Adhesive or glue

Colorless Nail Polish

Some Old Magazines

1^st Step: From your old magazines, cut your favorite words or clips or anything that captures you. Cut as many as you want, and lay them all until you completed the pieces. It’s up to you whether you will follow the shape of your clips or use a uniform shapes.

2^nd step: Start sticking them at the exposed side of your casing. Let your glued clippings dry before putting up another one. Make sure not to overlay them so that it will never make your casing bulky after redesigning it.

3^rd step: After covering all the entire face of the casing, let them stand to dry.

4^th Step: When it’s totally dried up, make some holes on the covered part of the casing such as holes for camera, and volume control.

5^th step: apply a colorless nail polish on top of it to bring gloss and shine, and to hide some imperfect cuts on the clippings. Let them dry for at least an hour, and whallah! You have a “new” celphone casing!

And my day already completed. Ooopppps! Gotta go, it’s 6PM and my husband’s coming. +_+ Just try it once, you’ll enjoy it. Bye!
