If you love all things shiny and retro, a disco ball-inspired phone case is the perfect DIY project! This easy craft adds a touch of glamour to your phone while making it stand out. Follow these steps to create your own mirror ball phone case that reflects light beautifully.
Materials You’ll Need:
-
Clear or solid-colored phone case (hard plastic works best)
-
Mini mirror tiles or extra mirror pieces
-
Strong adhesive (E6000 or industrial glue)
-
Tweezers for precise placement
-
Silver glitter or holographic paint (optional)
-
Small disco ball pieces for added texture
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Choose Your Base
Pick a hard-shell phone case in silver, black, or clear for the best disco effect. A clear case allows you to add layers like glitter or metallic paper underneath for extra shine.
2. Apply a Glittery Base (Optional)
For extra sparkle, coat the phone case with silver holographic glitter or reflective paint before adding mirrors. Let it dry completely.
3. Cut and Arrange Mirror Tiles
-
If using extra mirror pieces, cut them into small squares to resemble a real disco ball.
-
Arrange them in a grid pattern or place them randomly for a modern, shattered-glass look.

4. Glue the Mirror Pieces
-
Use strong adhesive to attach the mirror tiles.
-
Place them close together to maximize the reflective effect.
-
Use tweezers for precise placement and let it dry overnight.
5. Add Final Touches
-
Seal the edges with clear resin or glossy Mod Podge to prevent mirrors from falling off.
-
Attach small hanging disco ball charms for an extra 3D effect.
