These days we carry our phones everywhere we go! It’s almost hard to remember what life was like without them. And now that our phones are one of our most important accessories, it makes sense that we keep them on trend, right? You know I love adding a special touch to everything and my phone is no exception! And thanks to the amazing Cricut cutting machine I can switch up my phone case whenever I want! And it’s SO EASY! In this tutorial I’m going to share some fun designs that you can use to customize and make your own DIY phone cases!
How awesome is this personalized clear phone case? This is such a fun way to turn a plain phone case into a super cute case. I made this using an iPhone case but you can really make this for any cell phones. You can use my free patterns to create your own custom phone case with this simple DIY project following my easy steps!
To create this easy DIY phone case, we will need a clear case for your phone . You can even use an old phone case you may have lying around. I got these from Amazon, but you can find blanks at lots of places, like Five Below and sometimes even the Dollar store will have them in stock. We’ll also need some vinyl. I’m using a few different types: regular, smart, glitter and patterned vinyl, along with transfer tape.
And I’m going to use Mod Podge to seal my designs, but that’s optional. Of course we will need our amazing Cricut Cutting machine. You can use the Maker Series, Explore Series or even the Joy for this project! We’ll need a green cutting mat, weeding tool and scraper. If you want to add photos to your phone case you will need some Cricut Printable Sticker paper for that!
You no longer need to spend a lot of money to have your very own custom DIY phone case. I’ve seen some crazy prices for these and thought, wouldn’t it be a great idea if I could create the perfect phone case using my own design and my own case? You can create them using a little bit of creativity, your favorite color combinations, and an inexpensive case.
The best part is that you’ll have a cute phone case that all started with a fun idea! This would also be a great way to get your friends or family together so that you can all create a unique case that’s perfect for you.
I created four designs for you to pick out your favorite, or, even better, make all of them!
