Creating a cover from a ball in stages
You can turn a simple silicone balloon using an interesting life hack. The video will allow you to make a cover yourself. The process of turning the ball into a smartphone case does not take long. There is no need for glue or other materials at hand. It is enough to prepare an inflatable rubber product, as well as scissors. The step-by-step creation of an accessory involves the following basic steps:
- Inflate the balloon, asking the assistant at this time to pinch the hole in it with your fingers so that the air does not come out.
- Place the mobile device on top of the inflated balloon, covering each corner of the device with rubber, then start releasing air from it, slightly opening your fingers.
- Constantly press the ball with a smartphone while deflating.
- Straighten every unevenness on the product.
- Cut off a part of the ball with a hole at the end with scissors.
- Make holes for connecting the device to the charger in a deflated ball that fits the smartphone tightly.
