DIY Swarovski Crystal Rhinestones Cell Phone Case

Swarovski rhinestones cell phone case

Nowadays, rhinestones cell phone cases are popular, but they are expensive! Why don't we make one by ourselves?


We need the following items to make one:

Swarovski Crystal flatback rhinestones 2058 Xilion Rose Enhanced no hot fix SS10:




1 x Transparent plastic cell phone case

1 x Pattern grid



Swarovski rhinestones, rose, light rose, fuchsia, GS glue, rhinestone picking pencil


I found a pattern that I like and printed it out as a hard copy by using a computer program. Then stick it to the inside of a transparent cell phone case. Of course, it is better to have a color other than a black and white copy. But I had a black and white copy this time, fortunately, there was only a few color variations of the pattern.



Dark gray--->Fuchsia

Light gray--->Rose

Pale gray--->Light Rose

White--->Crystal


Now, I started to stick the rhinestones. Some people prefer to put the rhinestones line by line because it is easier and neater, but as a trial, I would like to put the rhinestones by colors and see how it works.


I first stick the Fuchsia rhinestones, squeezed a little bit of GS glue onto the case and picked a Fuchsia rhinestone using the the rhinestones picking pencil and put it onto the glue. Before the glue dry, move the rhinestone so that they align properly. Keep on sticking until all dark gray grids were filled.

Then, put Rose rhinestones to fill all light gray grids.
