how to apply a laptop skin sticker to your notebook

a simple how-to instruction photo series on how to apply a laptop skin sticker to your notebook. these instructions generally apply to all kinds of notebook stickers, but they were photographed and written by and for www.laptopskins.net

step 1: make sure your notebook is clean. wipe it off with a soft cloth. the notebook should be free of dust, fat and grease - otherwise the laptopskin may not stick to your laptop as well as it's supposed to.

step 2: check if the laptop skin size is correct. you can always trim the size of the skin with a cutter knife. if your laptop has hinges like the one shown, you could cut out the hinges from the skin to have an even more perfect fit.

step 3: peel away a small part of the sticker.

step 4: align the laptop skin on your notebook. take care that you put it on straight and in the exact position that you want to place it. as long as you don't push down on the exposed part of the sticker, you're free to move the skin around as you wish.

step 5: stick down the first part of the skin once you're certain you have it in the right position.

step 6: peel off the remaining sticker backside slowly, while at the same time gently pushing down on the exposed skin. by sticking it on gently bit by bit, you can avoid air bubbles under the skin. if there are bubbles under the sticker, simply peel it back a little and stick it back on.

step 7: you're done! ta-daa! see, that was easy - and the result is stunning, don't you think?

new designs: cream laptop skins

i got the idea for these new laptop skin designs when we were relaxing and drinking tea during our holidays on juist, where they have a special kind of tea that you drink with cream in it. dropping the cream into the tea made some really beautiful, art-nouveau-esque pattern that i really, really liked. so the next time around, i took pictures and made these amazing designs into a laptop skin. let me know how you like it! : )

new designs: industrial rust / metal laptop skins

the trip to henrichshütte really paid off - i got amazing pics of old rusty metal that turned out amazing for use on skin designs. the colour variations are unbelievable - metal obviously undergoes some very weird decaying process. the result is simply beautiful, especially because of the strange effect of seeing your high tech notebook dressed in rusted steel.

new designs: tree bark laptop skins

walking around in the sunshine last week, i got interested in the great structures of tree bark - there's an amazing diversity and beauty hidden in the different trees. so naturally, i started taking pictures to make design skins for your notebook with them. and they turned out really beautiful! the contrast between technology and nature is what makes these tree bark laptop skins so amazing to look at.
