I posted sometime ago about phone charms.
And I was asked what are phone charms ?
Just a fun fad from Japan.
.
Old cell phones usually had a hoie on the top right side on the case.
What real reason it was here for I have np idea
but the phone charm craze in Japan was born.
Loop a small charm through the hole.

Loop a small charm through the hole.
In fact in the height of the craze I remember seeing teen girls whip out their phone and they had so many charms and small stuffed animals that you couldn't see the phone.
Then the phones evolved and no space for a small hole. The Japanese found another way to have more fun with the phones. Plugs that fit into the earphone jack.
Hello fun.
This craze is just about over in Japan but I still love it.
.
I really need to straighten this up but here is some of my collection
phone charms, key rings plus some other stuff tossed in.
