You’ve seen them…  You’ve said I want one… And then you may have looked at the price and thought… but I’d rather eat this week.  Well, no fear friends, I have the easy solution to getting your very own gold iPhone case a la Miansai and Incase.  Here’s the do…

Purchase an inexpensive iPhone case (Amazon.com has great ones for less than two or three dollars) or use one of your old cases.

Have left-over metallic gold spray paint from a previous DIY project?  Pull it out.

Spread out a small drop cloth or newspaper either outside or in a well-ventilated room.

Then get to spraying, and let dry.  If another coat is in order make sure the first is completely dry before applying.

And then voila, you have a gold iPhone case without the dent in your wallet.  There’s actually a ton of possibilities with this simple DIY, from chevron stripes to typography.   You like?
