Some people like to stick shells on things I like to rhinestone everything in sight! :P

Instructions

  1. Small 9580

    Collect all the things you'll need The Rhinestones vary in cost depending on quality and brand. swarovski it the most expensive I know of but I prefer these but any will do You may also want some small bowls to sort sizes and colors into Don't forget to cover you work space!

  2. Small 9581

    Plan your design Use your double sided tape(or ordinary) place it on the areas you want to rhinestone set the rhinestones on. (Try do this neater than my quick example :p) Now you know your design will fit.

  3. Small 9582

    Carefully peel the tape off in one piece or sections. keep the rhinestones on so you can use them as a guide and can easily keep track of them when your gluing or Sometimes I like to just balance the stones on a small area and take a photo and just refer to it on the camera

  4. Small 9665

    Follow the instruction on the back of your glue packet. Use mixing stick included or match stick/toothpick ect... Glue a small line on the case. Quickly stick the stones on and gently push down on them. I used clear Araldite glue it comes in 2 parts and only activates when both parts are mixed. This is handy cos the glue doesn't dry in the tube. also The longer a glue takes to dry the stronger it is or so I'm told. The one I used took 3 days to bond properly

  5. Small 9666

    Use the que tips and nail polish remover to clean up stray glue.

  6. Small 9667

    Show it off to all non sparkly ipod people :)
