You have all probably seen this on other blogs such as Bleach Black but I thought I would post my little DIY anyway...
I made me one of these:
THE DEATH ROLL
photo from Bleach Black
Take one silicone iPhone case (eBay - $3.00)
Some spikes (spikesandstuds.com, about $10 for 40 I think? Cheap as chips!)
Measure it all out, mark spots and pierce with something pointy (I used surgical scissors)
Then stabby stab stab your screws through and screw the spike on top!
Taaaa daaaahhhhhh.
My parents think its the most ridic thing ever, I told them it was 'all the rage on the blogs' to which they replied, very sarcastically 'Ooooohhhhhhhhhh', complete with eye roll.
Ha. Parents.
My bro wanted to know how on earth I would fit it in my pocket. har har. I dont put it in my pocket thankfully.
I love that it is so solid to hold and your fingers slip in between the spikes so you have a good grip. I also put some tape on the inside to cover the screw backs so that they don't scratch my iPhone.
I love DIY. I want to order some more spikes to do a clutch. I just wish somewhere in Aus sold them because they take about 10 days to get here from the States. Wah.
Yay for hump day I cannot wait for this week to be over.

Too cool! Is it annoying making calls/putting it in your pocket?
ReplyDeleteIt felt a bit heavy at first but Im used to it now. I never put it in my pocket, but its fine to make calls on :)
