How To Create Your Own Laptop and Mobile Phone Skins

Laptop and Mobile skins are a type of stickers which allow you to personalize your device and stand out from the crowd. Images, photos and even text could be printed on a special paper and applied on the back cover of a Laptop or Mobile phone. If you're looking to dress up your device, one option is to buy a ready made skin which isn't cheap and you won't always get the design you want. The other option is to create your own skin using your own creative skills and all within the comfort of your own home. All you really need is a working printer and plenty of imagination. Let's get to it.

How To Create Your Own Laptop and Mobile Phone Skins:

1. Create a design - The first step is where your creativity can shine. There's no limit to your design, from photo of the cat to your favorite sports team.
2. Adjust the printer's setting - use highest resolution setting which you'll finder under the printer's setting.
3. Test print - Once the design is finished print a copy on a normal printer paper as a test. Particularity you want to ensure the design fits within the page, the colours are satisfactory and overall you're happy with the work.
4. Get your hands on some printable sticker paper -  Inkjet sticker paper also known by some as vinyl paper is fantastic for many craft making and commercial uses due to the ease of working with the paper. To create skins you'll need to sticker paper with a glossy finish.
5. Print your design - Print one sticker paper sheet, cut the paper to size and apply on the back of the device. If you're printing stickers for a Mobile Phone, Ipod or any other hand-held device print a few designs on one page before cutting it for extra savings.

What stop there? Different sticker papers with different finish could be used to create a shop window sticker, car bumper sticker and even for kitchen and bathroom tile decoration.
