DIY Smartphone Cuffs

This No-Sew Phone Armband Can Be Easily Made with Two Materials

Doesn't it seem like stores charge far too much for simple items like mobile phone cases? Try making your own No-Sew Phone Armband and you'll end up spending a very small fraction of the price and it will only take a few minutes of your time.

Marta from the 2nd Funniest Thing has provided online instructions for this DIY mp3 player cuff. It just requires a plastic placemat in your choice color, two hair elastics, some glue and a pair of scissors. You might find a ruler and a pencil useful as well.

Place your iPhone in the center of the place mat and trace a cross shape around it. These help you to form the pocket and the straps for the No-Sew Phone Armband, which can be connected through the stretchy loops.
