Plush Iphone Sleeve

Plush Iphone Sleeve

I made a plush mobile phone sleeve that looks like an Iphone.  The phone sleeve is made using faux fur, felt and a print of an Iphone screen  You can keep your Iphone protected in it's sleeve and still let everyone know what type of phone you have.

This is what I made for the Instructable's gift exchange.


Note: These instructions can easily be modified to create a plush Iphone instead of a phone sleeve.  See step 12 for this.

I recently joined the Android faction, but I love iPhones when faux!

Great idea! (My HTC Legend pretending to be an iPhone, that would be funny.)

BTW, I also have a faux iPhone project.

Awesome bit of creativity!

If you create a plastic sleeve for your iPhone to slip into you will have a much sturdier case. At the moment you run the risk of damaging your phone if you drop it.

Why do I want to let people know what kind of phone I have? But I do like fuzzy!

At first glance i thought this was an iphone plush case that was plush and then my first thought was that i had to have one. i was a little disappointed to see that it wasn't an actual iphone case. I am not disappointed, however, about this idea at all though. You did some nice work here. it even fooled me into thinking that there was a real phone in there. Kudos to your attention to detail. i look forward to the iphone 4.0 version (I don't know I guess a 4.0 would have an LED flash too or something) and Thank you for inspiring the plush iphone case that I am going to make.

My thoughts exactly. I want to try to make a case for my touch that I will actually let me use the device.
