I have a crush. I have a crush on all things Kate Spade…I simply couldn’t pick just one item to purchase and I don’t have the funds to buy all of them, so it’s time to pull out the DIY skills and undertake a project or two (or three, or four).
I have been eyeing this lovely gold polka dot Kate Spade iPhone cover…
BUT…At about $40 I knew I could create something just as cute for 1/4 the cost!
Today I am sharing my Kate Spade inspired polka dot iPhone case.
To create your own DIY Kate Spade inspired iPhone cover, you’ll need the following supplies:
- White iPhone Case (I bought mine on Amazon for under $10)
- Polka dot template or mask (I made mine with my Cricut Explore)
- Gold paint pen or Gold Sharpie
I started by cutting out a quick polka dot template in vinyl on my Cricut. If you don’t have an electronic cutting machine, don’t worry. You could use a small circle punch on vinyl, or you could even use the backing from a sheet of round dots or labels. Place your template on top of your phone, grab your paint pen and fill in the dots. Once you’ve filled in the polka dots, peel off your vinyl. I covered mine with a light spray of clear sealant, but if you use a Sharpie you’re good to go! I had the hardest time trying to photograph the end result because the gold leafing from the paint pen is so shiny, but it looks A LOT like the Kate Spade version I almost bought in the store. The best part? The whole project cost me under $15.
