The Meaning and History of the Evil Eye
The evil eye is a powerful and ancient symbol, which is found in many cultures around the world.
It’s believed that a malicious glare, often stemming from envy, can bring misfortune or harm.
The evil eye amulet was created to correct against this.
These eyes gaze back at the negative energy, deflecting it away.
While we’re crafting this lens case for fun and style, it’s fascinating to know that this symbol has been used for centuries as a form of protection and good luck.

DIY Evil Eye Contact Lens Case Craft
Gather Your Mystical Craft Supplies
- Amulet Palette: Whipped cream glue in a range of colors that evoke the mystique of the evil eye (deep blues, vibrant whites, striking blacks, and shimmering golds) or choose a playful palette, complete with decorating tips for creating captivating textures.
- Protective Box: Contact Lens Case (purchase a new one OR upcycle an old unsightly box)
- Gazing Guardians: Evil eye beads, charms, or even googly eye embellishments for a fun twist, along with rhinestones, shimmering sparkles, and other decorative accents.
- Visionary Tool: Tweezers for carefully placing your mystical embellishments with the utmost precision.
Create Your Contact Lens Case
- Plan Your Visionary Design: Envision your lens case! What colors and decorations will complete your mystical vision? Will you create a single, powerful eye, a cluster of gazing guardians, or a playful googly-eyed design? Let your imagination be your guide as you plan your design.
- Lay Down the Protective Base: Attach a piping tip to your chosen whipped cream glue and carefully apply it to the top of the case. Create a base layer that sets the stage for your evil eyes. Think of it as painting the protective aura around your amulet.
- Bring in the Gazing Guardians: Using your visionary tool (tweezers), carefully place your evil eye decorations (or googly eyes!) and any other embellishments onto the still-wet cream glue. Arrange them to create an eye-catching and captivating design, as if they’re watching over your contacts.
- Let Your Mystical Masterpieces Set (Dry): Place your completed lens case in a safe, undisturbed spot and allow it to dry completely, ideally overnight. This ensures the glue fully hardens and securely holds all your embellishments, allowing your protective designs to set perfectly.
- Carry Your Contacts in Stare-Stopping Style: Once your creation is fully dry, your unique evil eye lens case is ready to use. Keep your contacts safe and stylish!
