I’d like to introduce a way to make an original, folio-style smartphone case that fully protects your screen—perfect for anyone looking for a wallet-type case.

Using a folio case from a 100-yen shop and your favorite fabric, you can make it in just a few simple steps.

First, cut a clear file to match the shape of the folio case, then cut your fabric with a bit of extra width.

Attach double-sided tape and adhesive to the outside of the case, and carefully apply the fabric while paying attention to the camera opening.

That’s it—done!
