Looking for a sweet, practical way to keep your phone safe while it charges?
This charming handmade wall phone holder features a soft cream granny-square style panel with a pretty pink flower and sage-green leaves, framed in warm coral-pink. It slips neatly over a light switch or outlet plate, holds your phone securely in a front pocket, and lets the charging cable hang neatly below.
A useful yet lovely little project that makes a thoughtful gift or a cheerful addition to any room.
Description
The holder is worked as a rectangular pocket with an open top and a decorative front panel. A classic granny-inspired square forms the center, featuring a dimensional pink flower with a pearl bead center and soft green leaves. A tidy coral-pink border frames the entire piece and creates the hanging loops that slip over the outlet or switch plate. The design is both functional and decorative, keeping your phone off the floor or table while it charges.
Suitable for confident beginners to intermediate crocheters who know basic granny square techniques and simple seaming.

Check that the phone slides in and out easily and the cable can hang freely from the bottom.
