Jazz up and protect your phone with these crafty diy phone cases and cozies.

Hootie Hoo

Now, these little birds are fly. Get out the needle and thread and sew your way to the cutest iPhone case your purse has ever seen. Find the pattern here from lovahandmade.

Beer-rific

Don’t know what to do with all those beer cozies you won at bar contests in college? Make them into a snug iPhone case. Just cut off the bottom and sew up the side. Check this one out and the other awesome cases (the TARDIS one too!) at CrankCases’ Etsy shop.

If you're looking to improve your telecommunications for your business, it's worth checking out Caelum.

Foxy Cozy

One of our most favorite members and sellers at CraftFoxes, Anda from Adorably Kawaii, shares this cute pattern for a phone cozy here. 

Play That Funky Music

Stay retro with this cassette-inspired case. This idea could be used with any picture. Take something you love, print it on transfer paper, and iron it onto your phone's scratch protector. Check out this case at CoolBeans717.

Glitz and Glam

This is a super easy way to give your phone a whole new look. Jeannine at the Concrete Cottage shares her tutorial on her blog. She used clean nail polish to seal the glitter and I probably would have used some type of poly sealer, but you can use whatever you have laying around!

Cozy Cable Case

This knit cable phone case is super cute and will knit up quick. Make one to match your favorite cabled sweater! Find the pattern from Little Buttons & Bows, here.

Tape It Up

Well, it’s not cute, but it’s functional and duct tape could be just the base layer: paint the tape, sharpie-doodle on the tape, the options are endless. This how-to on Instructables shows you how to cut a sock and cover it with duct tape to make an easy home for your iPhone.

Find distinctive colors of duct tape at the Duck Brand Store!

Teddy Bear Cutie

I like all things kawaii so this cosy would be great to crochet. Tania from little things blogged shared this project and pattern with us here. 

Friends to Go

Remember those coffee to-go mugs that you could personalize with pictures? This is kind of like that, but hipper. Casetagram makes an iPhone case out of instagrams you snapped oh-so-coolly.

Bling Bling

Who doesn’t like shiny things? Get the tutorial for this blinged-out iPhone case from Crystal and Glass Beads.

Simply Pretty Crochet

This simple crochet pattern for this phone case can be done in an afternoon. You can customize it with any color and button you want. Find the pattern here!
