Blinging out your x-box controller

So my husband and I never had video games growing up. They simply weren't allowed. And that's how we'll do it with our children someday too... But for now we are child-less and I bought him an x-box kinect for Christmas. 

Now, I have never been into video games at all.... but I got my husband Halo Reach with his x-box and thought I would try to play it. We started and finished the game together in 8 hours over two days. I felt like SUCH a nerd! I won some serious geeky wifey points though!

Anyway, his controller is black and mine is white and I thought it needed to be a little more girly and a little more "me". So I blinged it out using my i-rock by Imaginisce and the new pink gems! I am so excited to share my little project with you! He's even considering letting me bling out his black one with the new black smooth glam rocks!

Where were you with this idea when all the kids still lived at home. hehehe
Fantastic way to personalize the controller and eliminate many 'debates' over who's is who's. You are so creative!!

How fun that you all play well together :) Doug and I used to play our Nintendo in a time B.G. (before girls). I think Hans needs his blinged out in black too.
