[My DIY] Neon Glasses case

With my ever growing collection of glasses, it is impossible to keep track of them all, so I came up with a DIY to sort my specs, matching the outside to the shape inside, all while adding a pop of color into my everyday. 

Supplies:  Glasses case, Glasses (mine are BonLook, seen here), Puffy paint, and chalk or painting crayon. 

Trace the outline of your glasses with the chalk. 
Using your glasses as a guide, draw in the inside rim. 
Next, using your puffy paint outline your glasses by painting over your chalk markings. 
Fill in the outline, then use a damp Q-tip to straighten lines and erase and chalk showing!

  1. So cute! I'm a glasses girl too, so I'd love to make a super-cool case like this. In addition to the neon designs, I actually really the blackboard effect of the case with only the chalk outline...I might try duplicating that with a white paint pen. :)
