Create with Craftey: “Created to Create” DIY Phone Case Using Vinyl

How’s your summer going so far?! I am so happy that it is June! I love the summertime and the sunshine. These blogs are my favorite part of the month, so it’s time to share June’s Create with Craftey post. Who else feels most themselves when they get to see what they create? That was my inspiration this month with this FREE hand-lettered SVG file. Plus, how cute is this DIY phone case?! We’re using vinyl to customize a simple phone case! As always, you can download it for yourself and see the step-by-step instructions on how to complete this month’s project by checking out Craftey’s blog post.

Applying transfer tape to vinyl

Not only did they give you the step-by-step instructions, but they also made a video showing you how to make this DIY phone case for yourself! You can watch that video below.

I think this design is so versatile and that’s why I can’t wait to see what y’all make with it. Plus, isn’t it so smart to place it INSIDE of the phone case to protect the vinyl from your daily life?! This is why I love Craftey so much y’all because they always give the best tips that I wouldn’t have thought of myself. Speaking of tips, have you checked out their community yet?

For those who don’t know me, I currently do not have any children (just one big ol’ fur baby). I always forget how expensive children’s clothes can be! That’s why I love getting to work on designs that are perfect for repurposing older clothes or a plain toddler tee that you snag on sale!

Create with Craftey: DIY “Rootin’ For Ya” Planter

Who here loves plants? *raises hand* Who here can’t keep a plant alive for very long? *raises hand again* HAHA! Is anybody else with me? This month’s Create with Craftey DIY project is this cute planter! This would be the cutest addition to spruce up a potted plant (real or fake) you already own. More importantly, I think that this DIY planter could the perfect gift to give one of your gal pals a little extra encouragement. You’ll get the FREE “Rootin’ For Ya” hand-lettered SVG file + instructions on how to complete this DIY project sponsored by the team over at Craftey. You can download this month’s free SVG file and learn how to make this for yourself step-by-step over on their website. In the event that you need vinyl first, they’ve got you covered! Shop their vinyl collections here.

I don’t know about you guys, but I could NOT be any happier that the spring has FINALLY arrived. This means that I have officially survived my first winter in Manhattan, Kansas (barely). It truly felt like it was never going to end. Eventually, it did. PHEW! Due to my personal celebration of the end of winter, I knew that I wanted to give you a design that was encouraging and spring-y (DUH… plants y’all). The sun is out. The weather is getting warmer every day and things are getting a little more green every day (slowly but surely). Therefore, if you had a rough winter like I did… I’m rootin’ for ya!!!
