I’ve found the easiest way to do it and I didn’t use mod podge or nail polish.
I used glitter ribbon!
Have you seen this stuff before? It is so much fun! I found the ribbon at Michael’s and new exactly what I wanted to do with it. I used double sided tape and easily wrapped it around the adapter and USB cable ends.
Supplies needed:
- glitter
- ribbon
- double sided tape
- scissors
- clear glue
For the adapter I wrapped two rows of ribbon and it fit perfectly. For one side of the USB cable, I did have to cut trim the ribbon a little.
It literally took less than twenty minutes. The next day I did have to add a little glue to the ends of the ribbon where it overlapped because it started to come off but that was an easy fix also.
What other crafts have you used glitter ribbon on? This is definitely my new favorite thing to craft with!
What a cool way to personalize and pimp your charger! 😉
Hope you have a great week! ;D

I didn’t even know glitter ribbon exsisted. Great idea! I am a sucker for glitter!
Would definitely keep my husband from borrowing my charger!
Love this, Kara! Found the link from a linky party & I loved that pretty thumbnail! Glitter is such a cheerer-upper. Pretty sure the glitter ribbon doesn’t exist here in Costa Rica, but I could certainly have some mailed my way! Thank you for sharing.
