Does your Ring have Bling?
Mine does, thanks to Beadalon’s new Cell Phone Straps. These ultra hot, super cool little doodads slide right onto your cell phone (look on the top or side, there is a tiny loop to put them through!), letting you get creative and dress it up! I like Beadalon’s product, the strap is lightweight and slides easily onto my phone, and the loop component where I’ve hung my bling is nice and strong – I tried pulling on it and it stays put!
I’ve used Swarovski crystals on my phone strap, but making one would be a GREAT way to clean up some of the clutter and orphan beads on my table! Just use headpins to create wrapped dangles right on the split ring of the strap, and viola! instant fashion statement.
To attach wrapped loops directly to the ring, hold your round nosed pliers just above the bead on the headpin. Drop the ring onto the headpin, and create your loop…carefully making sure that the ring stays on the inside of the loop next to the pliers. Add as many dangles as you’d like, using beads, stones, crystals, even tiny bells!
Hubby and I have the same model phone (yeah I know, corny, but we got a good deal on two phones at the same time), and there have been occasions when he’s accidently grabbed mine instead of his. Bet that doesn’t happen again!
