Deco-Den Phone Case

I already talked about deco-dening. In these photos I deco-dened cellphone case. the first cellphone case, I messed up and put to much silicone on and it turned out way to heavy. I suggest just enough to cover and look nice.

I deco-dened this hand mirror. I love it and think it is really cute the only bad thing is if you have a lot in your purse it will get dirty but just a little cleaning and it will be back to normal.
