Cover for a smartphone yourself: 6 original models

We will conduct several master classes in the manufacture of silicone, felt, knitted, leather covers, as well as amazing bumpers from the herbarium and baby socks.

Sheath-Herbarium

To make such a cover for your smartphone yourself, prepare:

• Plastic solid color cover of suitable color;
• Dried flowers, leaves, petals;
• A jar of sparkles;
• Flat wooden stick, cotton buds;
• acetone;
• Epoxy sealant resin from the store of household accessories;
• scissors;
• Colorless glue.

First, think over the composition, applying flowers in various variations to the surface of the cover. As soon as the "very same" is found, we start to work:

1. Take a picture of the ideal location to build on it in the process of creativity.
2. Try first to paste large and light details, and on top smaller and darker - under the influence of resin plants grow pale and become more transparent. At the end sprinkle the sequins. Do not overdo it with details - the layer with vegetation should not be thicker than 1.5 mm.
3. Following the instructions, dilute the resin with water one to one.
4. Gently pour the solution into the center. Then smear all over the surface of the picture, removing air bubbles.
5. Make sure that the resin solution does not overflow the surface of the composition - in this case, quickly wash it with cotton swabs soaked in acetone.
6. The flower universal cover for the smartphone will be ready after two hours of drying.

Silicone Case

Protective covers for a smartphone made of silicone can be done with:

• Building silicone sealant;
• Spatula;
• Color of the desired color;
• Scalpel or sharp knife;
• Starch.

Before you make a smartphone case with your own hands, be sure to wear rubber gloves.

1. Mix 50 g of potato starch with about the same amount of sealant. Then knead this product to the consistency of plasticine, along the way adding a dye in such a way that the color turned out to be even.
2. Roll out a rolling or bottle mass on a flat surface to the desired thickness.
3. Glue all the openings of the phone with adhesive tape, then put it in the center of the resulting cake, a little into it, pressing it.
4. Then use a spatula to bend the edges, making sure that the "pancake" is perfectly fitting to the smartphone.
5. Be prepared for the fact that the phone will lie in the "captivity" of this mass from 12 hours to 24 hours - so much is needed for the substance to freeze.
6. Taking out the phone, first remove the excess on the front, then cut through the holes for the camera, charger, headphones - they must be printed.

Pouch made of felt

Felt cover for a smartphone with their own hands is done with the help of:

• Thin felt (you can use the fabric of two contrasting colors);
• Scissors;
• Thread;
• Pins for sewing.

And if you have a sewing machine:

1. Cut out two identical rectangles - the outer and inner sides. It is necessary to take into account the length, width and thickness of the device, as well as an allowance of 5 mm from each side to the seams.
2. At the outer side, one corner is cut diagonally, so that in future it becomes a convenient pocket.
3. Then put the parts one on top of the other (outside-pocket outside), fold by the shape of the phone and stitch, retreating 4 mm from the edge.
4. Felt does not crumble, so the edges do not have to be processed. If desired, decorate the product with a kind of appliqué or patch - the universal case for the smartphone is created!

Knitted Case

The most "cozy" case for a smartphone with your own hands can be made from yarn, namely to tie it. You will not need many materials:

• Spokes;
• yarn;
• Thread and needle.

Here you can use two methods:

1. The easiest and fastest. Tie two favorite canvases with your favorite pattern and sew them together. Dial loops along the width of the smarfon and then knit in length. You can type the loops along the length of the device and knit already in its width.
2. Knit "one piece" - the way knit socks. Type the hinges into two widths of the phone, and then divide into four spokes. Continue to knit in the chosen scheme, using only the facial loops, until the length of the product is equal to the length of the smartphone.

It is possible to tie such an article with a hook, taking into account the first method.
