Use a mixture of big and small buttons to create a striking look. Use different coloured buttons to make a bold look. Pick buttons with interesting textures to create a unique design. Be careful not to get super glue on your skin.

Make a zig-zag pattern using different coloured gemstones. Use gemstones to write your name if you want to personalise the case. Make rows of different coloured gemstones to create stripes.

Choose 1 big sticker for the middle if you want a simple look. For a more detailed look, use multiple stickers. Purchase stickers online or from craft stores.

If you want a simple and striking look, choose 2 or 3 tapes. Consider combining a plain block colour with a patterned tape. Purchase washi tape at a craft store or online. Tapes with designs are a striking option. Consider using polka-dots, stripes, squiggles or glitter tapes.

Pull the tape tight before you place it on the phone case to prevent bumps. Push the tape down to remove any air bubbles that form. Leave about 1 centimetre (0. 39 in) of the tape hanging over the edge of the case. You can fix these ends up later. If you are feeling creative, try creating a zig-zag pattern.

Continue to place strips of tape over your case until you have covered the entire back.

Push the tape down inside the case to help it stick.

Bright red and yellow work well together and create a contrasting effect. Pale pink, blue, and purple work well together. Purchase nail polish from a pharmacy.

Use your different colours to create a pattern. For example, paint one line of grey circles and then paint a line of pale pink circles. Paint the circles close together to create a confetti look. Paint large shapes like squares and triangles to create a geometric theme. Write your name using small dots to personalise your case.

Make sure the case is clean before you place the picture in. This will stop any dirt or sand from scratching your photo. Polaroids are a great choice as they are the perfect size.

If the flowers don’t fit in the case, try trimming the stems with a pair of scissors.

If any glitter is covering the camera lens, use a dry cloth to wipe it off. Purchase glitter from a craft store.

Place the phone case onto a hard surface and use a craft knife to trim around the camera hole. Also trim the other holes if the map is covering them. Search for vintage maps if you want a particularly retro look.
