- 1). Draw patterns or pictures on a plain cell phone skin by using fine tipped paint pens, available at craft stores and online. You can choose to cover the entire skin or simply outline the button holes and screen opening. Allow the paint to dry.
- 2). Spray the cell phone skin with a coat of clear acrylic spray paint. This will seal the design and prevent it from rubbing off. Allow to dry completely.
- 3). Embellish the phone further by using rhinestones, jewels, or small buttons as accents. Apply a dot of hot glue to the cell phone skin, then press the chosen item over the glue using tweezers to prevent burning your finger.
- 4). Snap the finished customized skin over your cell phone.
