It's easy to charge your phone if you hang it up by the outlet.It takes a few seconds to charge your phone and you can hang it up.If you want, you can use materials around your house to create your own holder.
Step 1: You can form a loop with the loose cord.
Bring the cord to the left and upwards, forming a large loop, if the charger is inserted into an outlet.There is a loose end of the cord.
Step 2: Hold your phone in place when you set it down.
Keep one hand on the loose end to hold the phone in place while the other holds the cord.The charging end is to your right if you place your phone down.It's okay if the phone isn't perfect.
Step 3: Take the loose end of the cord with you to your phone.
Plug the charging cord into your phone and continue your circle.The phone will balance on the bottom of the loop if the charging cord is on top.If your phone is not balanced on the cord, you may need to re-position it.
Step 4: Remove the labels from the bottle.
If you find an old bottle, peel off the labels.If there isn't any soap or lotion left in the bottle, rinse it out.Before using the bottle, make sure it is dry.Warm water and soap can be used to get rid of sticky labels.
Step 5: On one side of the bottle, make an upside-down 'U' shape.
If you want the curve of the 'U' to go along the bottle's curve, use a permanent marker to draw it upside-down.The legs of the 'U' need to go halfway down the bottle's length in order for the curve to take up as much width as possible.Use as much of the bottle as possible to make a wide 'U'.
Step 6: Pull a horizontal line halfway down the bottle.
To draw a straight line on the back of the bottle, use the permanent marker.The upside-down 'U' shape and horizontal line on the left and right sides of the bottle should be connected.The phone will be in the horizontal line.
Step 7: The upside-down 'U' shape is ideal for drawing a square or circle.
The holder will fit over the hook.If you want to make a hole large enough to fit over the power adapter, place it in the center of the 'U' shape's curve.The shape will make hanging on the hook easy.If you want to get an accurate square, you can measure and transfer the measurements to the bottle.If you make a mistake while using the permanent marker, use a paper towel or cotton ball soaked in acetone to erase the lines.
Step 8: Use sharp scissors to cut the bottle.
Cut off the top of the bottle so that you can put your phone in a pocket.If the cut edges of your bottle are not perfect, you can always cover them up later.If you want, use a precision knife.
Step 9: For a quick fix, decorate the bottle with washi tape or stickers.
If you don't mind the plastic bottle look, add a few decorations to the bottle to finish it off like tape, ribbons, or any other craft supplies you have.Adding washi tape along the edges of the bottle is one way to make them softer, or covering the plastic bottle in your favorite stickers or glitter is another.If you want to remove the permanent marker from the bottle, use acetone and a cotton ball.
Step 10: You can cover the bottle with spray paint or fabric.
It will take a little more time, but it will help make your phone holder look better.Use a paint or foam brush to cover the outside of the bottle, or spray paint it to make it look different.You could use paint to make a design on your bottle.
Step 11: Attach a hook to the wall to hang the holder.
Purchase a hook from a big box store and place it next to your outlet.Attach the phone holder to the hook using the hollow circle at the top of the bottle as a pocket.If you only charge your phone for a few minutes, it is okay to hang your new phone holder over the adapter.Hanging it next to the outlet is safer because the holder can't accidentally touch the metal prongs.
Step 12: Cut fabrics to make 11 in 6 in.
Use a pen or marker to draw a large upside-down 'U' on a few pieces of fabric.There is plenty of room for your phone if you make the U long and wide.Use scissors to cut the fabric.You can use any type of fabric you want for the holder.
Step 13: To make a thicker base, sew the fabrics together.
Place the upside-down U shapes on top of each other.To sew around each edge of the shape, use a needle and thread or a sewing machine.As long as the fabrics are secure, it doesn't matter which type of stitch you use to sew them together.If you want, you can use sewing pins to keep the fabric in place.
Step 14: Cut 7 in 6 in rectangles and sew them together.
Pick out a few pieces of fabric and draw a rectangular shape on them that is 7 in long and 15 in wide.This will be placed over the U shape to make a pocket.Place them on top of each other and sew them together.Pick out the fabric you want.The multiple layers of fabric will make the phone holder stronger.The upside-down U shape requires sewing pins to keep the rectangle in place.
Step 15: They should be lined up evenly on top of the U shape.
The fabric that you want to display is facing upwards if you situate your upside-down U shape.The edges should be lined up so they are in line.The upside-down U and the rectangle are both 15 cm wide, so they should fit inside one another.
Step 16: Take the left, right, and bottom edges of the rectangle and sew them onto the U shape.
To sew the rectangle onto the upside-down U, use a needle and thread or a sewing machine.The pocket should be created by sewing the left, right, and bottom edges of the rectangle.
Step 17: The U shape has a large hole in it.
A hole large enough to fit over the hook is what you need.To hide the cut edges of the fabric, use scissors to cut out the center and add ribbon or string around the hole.If you need to trace around the fabric with a pen, place a circular object on top of it.To make them look better, glue or sew ribbon around the hole.
Step 18: If you would like, add decorative elements to the edges.
Glue ribbon around the edges of the phone holder to hide it.If you want to finish it quickly, use hot glue or sew the ribbon onto each edge.
Step 19: If you want to use the phone holder, hang it on a hook.
Attach the hook to your outlet.Place your phone in the pocket and put it on the hook.Plug the charge in and you are good to go!If fabric touches the metal prongs, it's best not to put it on top of the adapter.If possible, put the fabric holder next to the charger.You can find the hooks at your local big box store or online.
