This is a really simple and cheap little tutorial which you can customise however you like depending on what you have and how great you are at nail art!
You need:
Clear plastic phone case (mine was from poundland)
Nail varnish
Paper and pencil
Lay your phone down on the piece of paper and draw around it. You now have a template to draw your design onto. We decided on this geometric pattern and drew it onto our template. You could choose absolutely anything to draw, the more nail colours and skills you have the more options you have.
We then laid the case over our design, masking taped the case onto the paper and set about painting it, using the template as a stencil. To start with we tried to make the lines as straight as possible by using masking tape but it didn’t work very well so we stuck with messy free hand.
Once you have finished the design just let it dry and voila, you have a one of a kind phone case!
I also learnt from doing this that top coat, spray deodorant and body spray all work as nail varnish remover, did you know that?
And thanks to Becca May for her help :)
You can actually use any nail varnish as remover. Paint it on then take it off with cotton wool straight away and it takes off both the wet layer and the layer underneath. It's a bit of a faff ans obviously not something to do with your favourite polish. but worth knowing ;-)
