How to Make Cell Phone Charms
If you have a cell phone, and you are really enjoying it but you feel like something is missing then that is for sure the cell phone charm. There are different ways that people personalize their phones. They put wallpapers and ringtones which they like and find interesting, but they are not noticed by people right away. So in case you lose your phone somewhere around people who know you it will be easier for them to recognize that it is yours just by looking at the charm.
Of course to get one there are two ways for you. If you do not have time or just do not think it is worth spending time on it, you could just go to the shop, choose one and buy it. In order to make the phone feel even more like “your phone” you can just make the charm on your own. That will make it unique. So here are the steps you should follow to accomplish this:
First you need to gather all of your supplies. In order to do that you need to visit a craft or jewelry store and get a thin but hard wire. You also need to get some small beads that have holes that are large enough to fit through the wire but at the same time not bigger because they can easily fall through the wire.
Secondly, you need to decide where exactly on your phone you want the charm to be. You can just examine your phone, which will be enough to find a good spot for your charm. Recommendations are to put it around the antenna or just to dangle off any attached cords.
Then take your wire and use pliers to snip a piece that would be long enough to loop through the area where you want it to be. It needs to be long enough to hold the beads you are going to use as well.
One you have done that you need to thread the objects on the wire. Simply make a small knot on one end of the wire, place your beads at the center of it. Then make another small knot at the top of the beads, as you leave a bit slack enough to loop onto the phone.
Then all you need to do is just attach it to your phone. Just loop the wire through the part of the phone where the charm will be hanging. Then use the pliers to close the off loop.
This is how you make your own charm and personalize your even more your phone. Of course there is the possibility that after a time it might break because of the wire, but then you can simply repeat the steps and make a new one. You can also make several and change them at certain periods of time if it gets too boring to see the same charm on your phone all the time. The choice is all yours.
