I have an iPhone now,acctully I do not want to spend too much money on my iPhone accessories.However I've been in love with all of the cute, trendy cell phone cases I've been seeing online.  But they're pretty much all meant for iPhones. What about those of us who still use droids? I don’t know if this technique will work for other phones. If you know of another type of phone this technique will work for please let us konw.

Maybe a lot of people ask where I bought the case,but I tell you that I get them from online store,there many cheap cell phone accessories online,you can pick them according to your phones. I headed right on over to the craft store and picked out some scrapbook paper. As you can see, I went overboard. I don’t usually get the chance to buy any of the beautiful papers I drool over, since I don’t scrapbook, so this was the perfect excuse to buy lots of pretty paper. If it’s not self explanatory enough, basically all you do is trace around your cell phone on some scrapbook paper.

Cut it out. And then cut out a hole for the camera and flash. I used the clear cell phone cases to help me determine where to put those holes, since there is a hole in the case for the camera and flash. To do this I laid the clear case on the cut out cell phone shape and traced around the hole. I cut the holes out with a round hole punch, I just punched around the traced area until all the area was all punched out. You could probably cut the hole out with an exacto knife as well.  Once I got a good pattern cut out, I used it as a template for the other covers.

Once they’re all cut out you just pick which ever pattern you feel like, stick it in the case, and snap it onto your phone. It stays in nice and tight, and the case keeps it in place so you don’t have to worry about it slipping around or falling out. Listing easy 4 steps attch the pics!

1.And then purchase a clear, hard plastic cell phone case for your particular brand of phone.

2.Trace the back half of the cover onto paper to create a template and cut it out using an xacto.  You definitely do not want to skip this step, because you have to tweak and re-tweak this template so that you get all of the openings just right, and so that it fits well inside the back cover or else it wont snap back together correctly.
