I’m one of those annoying people who always has their phone with them and has to check it every five minutes. Why? Who knows. Maybe I’m worried someone might need to urgently contact me, or I might miss a really hilarious tweet someone’s done if I don’t refresh my feed 400 times. I used to always have really bad luck with phones, and by bad luck, I mean I’m horribly clumsy. My first ever iPhone had an unfortunate accident when it was dropped on the floor resulting in a bad cracked screen. So since then I’ve always made sure my phone has a phone case in the hope of protecting it a little more.
Recently I was contacted by GoCustomized to see if I would like to review one of their phone cases. They are a Dutch company who offer personalised phone cases for a variety of different phones and tablets. Using a design module you can create a design using one of your favourite images, patterns, or pre-made designs and text which will then be printed straight onto your chosen phone or tablet case.
After playing around with the designs for a while, I decided to use my favourite photo of my kitty Jeff. While I love personalised stuff, when it comes to personalising my own I really struggle to coming up with ideas so I usually panic and use a photo of my cat, I mean look at him, he’s rather adorable.
It was really easy to make your own phone case, you just upload the phone you wanted to use, and then you could play around with the design and voila! You could also zoom in and crop the image you wanted to use, and pick the outside colour of the case, and for mine and decided to chose black as I thought it went quite well with the image I wanted to use. Once I’d created my design, it was easy to order it and the case arrived within a matter of days which is a great turnaround time! Sure the case itself looks pretty, but does it do the job I need it to do? Well I’ve not broken my phone yet, which is probably a new personal best for me. I find this case fits my phone perfectly, and it’s easy to remove if needed.
Overall I’m really impressed with the quality of this phone case, as well as the service from GoCustomized, and I’d definitely use them again in the future. I think it would also make a great gift for friends and family, so I might be making a couple of these at Christmas time!
I haven’t been on a holiday for years, and I mean years. The last proper holiday I had was with my parents (who paid because I’m poor) to Devon in 2014, and before that was… well, in 2009. I’ve had the odd day trip out, and many many trips up to Sunderland to visit Chris’s…
On Sunday I drove over to Cambridge to meet up with my new friends Laura and Pippa and spend a rainy afternoon at a Cambridge Craft Party hosted at Rhode Island. We spent the afternoon learning to make flower crowns and nattering over the most amazing milkshakes. I love doing anything crafty, and this sounded like a perfect way to spend a…
I love cream teas, in fact I always find an excuse to stop at cute little coffee shops to enjoy a pot of tea and a warm scone. There’s just nothing nicer than them. Since I’ve moved house there’s no where really around here where I can get my scone fix, so I was happy…
The majority of my spare time has always been spent on this blog, or playing The Sims, actually mostly playing The Sims. It’s been years since I tried to, or even thought about taking up a new hobby, when one day one of my best friends started knitting. I then saw her creating loads of cool knitted…
For a while now I’ve been a little unhappy about my weight. Since starting uni in September I’ve found I’ve put on a bit of weight, and that my eating habits have got worse. I’ve also started drinking a lot more than I used to, and frequently have the odd cheeky take away. I’ve noticed that a…
Image courtesy of Lucy Last month I was invited to spend an evening on a luxury boat sailing down the thames, with a casino aboard thanks to Ladbrookes. I did something that was quite brave for me, I went to an event on my own, where I didn’t know anyone. It doesn’t sound like much, but for someone who’s…
