A little glitter never hurt
I have been using my clear silicone iPhone case for ages now and it is getting old, yellowish and badly scratched. I have been looking around to buy a new phone case and nothing seemed to have caught my eye. And then something clicked I went to the Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok last Sunday and saw an inexpensive clear plastic case selling for 80 Baht! I bought it straightaway and decided to sparkle it up with some glitter. A little glitter will never hurt anyone, right? =)

Step 1
Gather up all the materials that you need.

Cut and trim the craft paper to the size of the phone case.
Step 2
Cut out a small piece (about 5 cm by 5cm) of baking paper and cover it with washi tape.

Fold the baking sheet and washi tape into half and cut out half a heart shape.
Step 3
Gently lift up the washi tape from the baking sheet and paste it into position on the clear case.

Apply a layer of Mod Podge inside the heart cutout.
Step 4
Generously pour the glitter over the heart cutout, making sure that the glitter covers the whole heart. I did this in a plastic box so that the glitter will not scatter all over my working area.
Step 5
Wait for the Mod Podge and glitter to dry and gently remove the washi tape from the clear case.

Apply a layer of Mod Podge to the glitter heart. Let it dry and repeat to apply a second layer of Mod Podge to ensure that the glitter will not fall out.

Clear up the some bits of glitter and Mod Podge on the case. I did this with some rubbing alcohol and a piece of paper towel.
