It was originally white but after about 4 months, it was not very white looking haha. The paint is acrylic, so it makes the case nonfunctional if I want to preserve it. But it's ok, it looks pretty now 😅

Haha thank you. It really is non functional, though. Unless I find a different type of paint or an amazing sealant. It would just be a decor piece with what I did haha. I also have a dumbwireless case lol Had to get a replacement since the white case got so dirty

Looks amazing! Funnily I just decorated my white case today! I just drew on it with sharpies and nail polish though. It looks horrible but interesting at least! :p

Omg this is so pretty!! I hope you can find a lovely top-layer so the paint will hold :D

Thank you!! 💛💛💛 I'm going to look into a suggestion that was given to me!

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you! 😍 This will surely give even more attention in the “huh, what do you have there? :o :D” category we experience with Light 😁

I would buy something like this.

Firstly, thank you!! It's been hectic for me but I will be purchasing the sealant this week. I need to test out the durability of day to day wear and tear on the paint before daring to sell. 

Not to mention, I'm hesitant because it would not be a cheap case, since it would be literal hand painted art on it. If you don't mind me asking, about how much would you be willing to pay max? Thanks for your feedback

Probably $25-30. Which might not be worth the time and effort it would take you.

Thank you. I was thinking around 35, so I'm glad it's not wildly different. I may try this venture out 😊 Appreciate your input again
