If you’re going to rhinestone your laptop, we suggest that you cover it in a case first rather than sticking it to the actual surface of your computer. Once you’ve done that, however, you can use gems and strong glue to create almost any pattern you want, just like The Gunny Sack did!

2. Rhinestoned camera strap
