Instructions:
Step 1
Gather your supplies
Tip your flatback crystals into magic sorting tray so they are easily accessible. Make sure your wax picker pencil is sharp; this will make it easier to pick up your crystals. Prepare your E6000 glue by squeezing it into your syringe.
Step 2
Map out your flatbacks
For this embellishment we want to make sure we are placing the correct sized flatbacks so that they cover the printed pearls in the design. To ensure this it is best to map out which sizes you will be using before placing any glue down. It will eliminate the possibility of mistakes and ensure your work isn’t messy.
Step 3
Placing your crystals
Place a small dot of glue on each area you are placing your flatbacks. We want to make sure not to place too much glue otherwise it will be very visible on the finished phone case.
Place down all your flatbacks to your liking.
Step 4
Inspect and adjust
Before finishing it is best to adjust any flatbacks while the glue is still wet. This also ensures that you won’t have to correct any mistakes later when the glue is dry and harder to work with.
Step 5
Finishing touches
Now that your crystals are placed correctly, leave your embellishment to dry for at least 12 hours.
