Everything is brighter in the summer: The Sun, foods (like delicious Popsicles!), and even our clothes. Phone chargers should be no exception! Brighten up your phone charger with a bit of washi tape this weekend. Here’s how (Also, enjoy the galaxy theme of this collage; I’m pretty proud of it!)
Materials:
Scissors (for clean lines)
Phone charger (Mine had two parts: a wire and a charging cube.)
Wide colored masking tape (Mine is called Scotch Expressions masking tape and is 0.94″ wide.)
Rolls of washi tape with some transparent areas to let the masking tape show through
Steps (These are the instructions for making a charger that looks like mine, but there’s really no wrong way to do this!):
1. Wrap the charging cube in the wide masking tape.
2. Again, wrap the charging cube, but this time with your slightly transparent tape covering your first layer.
3. Cover both ends of the wire in washi tape.
4. Plug the wire into the cube!
As there are many different types of phones, chargers will vary. You can modify these steps based on your charger and personal style. I encourage you to experiment with different colors and patterns of tape. Have fun with it!
Also, I will unfortunately be on vacation next week and unable to blog. So… my next post won’t be until AT LEAST a week from now. I can hear everyone sighing at me. I’m sorry! Anyway, Adiós, and enjoy your FANTABULOUS new charger. ❤

Maybe with this little craft kick up – your co workers and significant others will not “borrow” your charger and forget to return it? Love when little details in our lives are our own. Take the time to personalize the little things in life.
Absolutely love this idea! Will be trying it soon!
Thank you! I’m glad you like it.
