Delightfully Tacky And Unrefined

September30

Gather ’round Aunt Becky’s knee, Internet, because she’s gonna give you today’s word of the day.

Tacky.

Bejeweled.

Unrefined.

Be glad that you’re not ACTUALLY related to me so I don’t whip THIS out in front of your friends or family:

Tacky AND Unrefined

Behold my old cell phone, which not only was delightfully bejeweled, but also weighed about 3.6 pounds.

Happy Wednesday.

I think that my daughter had one of those, except Sleeping Beauty was on it, and on yea, the phone was plastice and made incredibly annoying noises! She used to call all the other Disney princesses on it.

It’s like a hand held disco-ball.

In the tradition of elementary school art projects, that sucker still needs to be painted with glue and dipped in glitter before it’s done.

That’s hot! I think I’m going to do that to my laptop. And my camera. And my front door.

You told everyone the “B” was for Britney and you two were so tight she let you carry her phone, didn’t you? DIDN’T YOU??

Will you make me one!!

My cubicle-mate’s current phone looks like that. I call her Rainbow Brite. Well for the phone and the spandex leggings in irridescent colors she wears on the bus ride to work.

Do you own a bedazzler, too?

What’s the link to your etsy shop?

Tis Lovely! I might Bedazzle my next one just because it’s so pretty!
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:10 am Mama Cas Says:
Wow. That’s truly cheese-tastic. Did you have a Hannah Montana ring tone?
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:13 am Bluebird Says:
If it had a different letter on it it could be my mother in laws’s. (As in, her current phone). Or my sister in law’s. Please feel sorry for me, at least this is your *old* phone 😉
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:14 am tracey Says:
that is awesome. the only possible way to make it any better is to add a sparkly hello kitty sticker to it. then it would rawk. 😀
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:17 am Alyssa Says:
At first glance, I thought it was the Red Sox symbol and got really excited.
On September 30th, 2009 at 11:20 am Kate Says:
Oh my, that is SEX-AY!!!!!

Excuse me while I laugh.

And laugh some more.

Okay. No, wait, I’m not done.

Bwah ha hahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahah

Okay, I’m all right now. Thanks, Aunt Becky. I needed that today.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:23 am tysdaddy Says:
Dear . . . God! You say this is your old phone? Is the new one this . . . shiny?
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:25 am Ashley Says:
I did that to my Palm Centro once. The jewels dug into my ears and they kept falling off… Then my phone went schizo and I had to get a new one. And the jewels wouldn’t stick on the new one. Sad.

I need to use Swarovski crystals and super-glue them on next time. I’ll take the sore ears to have a sparkly phone.

And you, my darling Aunt Becky, are totally delightfully tacky yet unrefined. I love your Hooters. And your poon.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:28 am Tasha Says:
I want that! And to be bff’s with Maria@boredmommy so she can do my front door when she’s finished with hers.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:28 am Tara Says:
bedazzle rocks! We bedazzled our headsets at work! Haha.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:28 am rebekah Says:
Extra bags of sparkle! Genius!
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:32 am a Says:
Why have a boring cell phone? Did you have some rocking Britney Spears ringtones to go with that?
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:37 am foradifferentkindofgirl (fadkog) Says:
Awww, sweetie! Did you do that yourself!? 😉
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:39 am Aunt Juicebox Says:
Just so you know – putting that kind of stuff on your cell phone will sometimes VOID the warranty. I’m not even joking. I only know this because my kid’s dad works for a cell phone company, and told me. Instead, you should put those jewels on your shoes. And wear them out in public.
On September 30th, 2009 at 11:47 am V Says:
Wow they really are roasting you!
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:50 am Mrs Soup Says:
Bwahahahaha, GORGEOUS! I’m SO jealous….
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:51 am Fawn - Like A Deer Says:
Yowzers….do you hear that? It’s the sound of Aunt Becky’s cool quotient dropping…

:p But I loves ya.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:56 am Beth Says:
I’m not going to lie… I kinda love rhinestones, terrible as they were in terms of taste level 🙂
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:58 am Nyx Says:
Ohhh…shiny. But where’s the glitter? GOD IS IN THE DETAILS AUNT BECKY. THE EVER LOVING DETAILS.
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:58 am Janie Woods Says:
Dear God! Imagine putting that in your pocket, on vibrate, and calling yourself over and over! YOU’RE a fucking genius!!!!
On September 30th, 2009 at 11:04 am Christa Says:
Oh the horror! Ya know several years ago a friend of mine got me a wee little green snow parka for my cell phone. It was so cute and I used it for a few months till I got tired of looking like a freakshow who had to undress her phone to answer it.
On September 30th, 2009 at 12:13 pm Chris Mancini Says:
It’s like you’re the “Laverne” of the digital age.
On September 30th, 2009 at 11:35 am Ed Says:
Oh, visions of you in the grocery store with 3-inch Lee Press-Ons, open-mouthed gum chewing and talking really loudly to nobody on the other end, “Oh no he di’nt! GIRULL, HE JES AIN NO GOOD!!”
On September 30th, 2009 at 12:52 pm Rebecca Says:
So was that the work of Drunk Aunt Becky? cause I like it.
On September 30th, 2009 at 1:06 pm Jamie Says:
Dude. That TOTALLY rocks.
On September 30th, 2009 at 12:11 pm honeywine Says:
Honey, if I could roll myself in glitter every morning and not have to worry about unusual growths coming out of my head, I’d do it! Glitta is my life! 😀 And, yet, I haven’t done that to my phone. Probably because I don’t use it enough to warrant display-ability concerns.
On September 30th, 2009 at 12:16 pm Mommy on the Spot Says:
love it!! i smille (if not laugh) everytime i read your blog! did you have to glue each and everyone on?

thanks again for visiting my blog and becoming a follower!

you freakin ROCK Aunt Becky and I want to be just like you

HAHA! Can you make me one?!?
On September 30th, 2009 at 12:38 pm Mwa Says:
Okay – I don’t care what the others say, but that’s just TOO tacky!
On September 30th, 2009 at 1:08 pm Kerrie Says:
DUDE! I totally want to do this to my phone! Send directions!
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:19 pm linlah Says:
Did Paris give that to you?
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:23 pm Lucy Says:
Tacky: posting a picture of a bedazzled cell phone instead of writing a real post.
On September 30th, 2009 at 1:46 pm Empresso Says:
Dang! I turned in my old cell phone when I got the new one, otherwise I would take a picture of it. I did the EXACT SAME THING to my phone, which I think is the EXACT SAME PHONE as yours, except with blue and silver crystals. So I guess it wasn’t the exact same thing but close. Anyway, I would leave the phone in the hot car and the adhesive would melt so I Gorilla Glued those little suckers to the phone. Tres Tacky.
On September 30th, 2009 at 1:49 pm GrammaOfFive Says:
NICE!! I will admit to glueing swarovski crystal rhinestones on my car keys. There are about 10 of them. On the flat part. Where you put your thumb. My husband sighed, and rolled his eyes when he saw them. 4 years ago.
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:08 pm Stacey Says:
You are the Paris Hilton of the blog world. Should we expect a panty flash next?
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:19 pm Gforbes Says:
You made fun of your glasses but I think the phone goes perfectly with them. HAHAHA
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:30 pm Carlynn Says:
Love the cell phone. I would do that to mine if I had the courage. Seriously lacking in bravado at the moment. I think I could manage one little sparkle and I would probably cover it up with my thumb when I took my phone out.

Did you do the whole decoration thing yourself? And how? (Excuse the dumb questions).
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:32 pm Stone Fox Says:
where’s the matching money-clip?

i vote for Ed for Comment Of the Day.
On September 30th, 2009 at 2:50 pm jessiee Says:
I think the comments are as good as the cell phone!!!!

And Lucy needs a fucking drink.
On September 30th, 2009 at 3:31 pm Miss Grace Says:
Oh my goodness. If I send you my phone, will you pretty it up for me?
On September 30th, 2009 at 3:34 pm Ginger Magnolia Says:
Oh sweet Jesus.
On September 30th, 2009 at 3:37 pm Your Aunt Becky Says:
I did the bedazzling myself, after I ordered away for a kit. And my job doing it? SUCKED. I am not (OBVIOUSLY) crafty. The stupid stones fall off constantly, the glue was a bitch to work with, and yeah, bad idea. But man, I’d do it to my iPhone in a second if I could.
On September 30th, 2009 at 3:36 pm Carissajaded Says:
I LOVE IT and OH my gosh!! I did the same thing to my old Nokia! Someone made the mistake of putting a bunch of packets of those sticky jewels in my stocking a few years ago… but i didn’t stop there! I also have sparkly flowers on every knob in my house (doors, dressers ect.) I love it, thats all that matters….
On September 30th, 2009 at 4:11 pm Sunny Says:
Dude, I am totally going to invest in a Bedazzler if both these twinklets turn out to be girls. To save money, I’ll just bejewel the hell out of my son’s old clothes. I’m not seeing how this couldn’t work — and be AWESOME.
On September 30th, 2009 at 5:16 pm avasmommy Says:
Dude. I….I….I…got nothing. And you know I’m not often speechless…..
On September 30th, 2009 at 4:24 pm beth Says:
i like to wear my bedazzled denim shirt under my snuggie.
On September 30th, 2009 at 4:28 pm Wishing4One Says:
You are such a pimp… i knew it.
On September 30th, 2009 at 4:34 pm Alicia @ bethsix Says:
That is beyond fucking awesome. I want to do this to the place where my bathing suit touches.
On September 30th, 2009 at 4:45 pm Potty Mouth Mommy Says:
that so TOTALLY matches those oh-so-sexy purple boots of mine that ye covet… 😛

where do ya get that shit??? i’ve been wanting to do my phone since hubs and I got new ones- our old ones were the same phone- mine white, his black but the new ones are IDENTICAL- the only diff is that I use the 24hr clock and he uses 12 hr and I have a better ring tone… So I figured with some girly-bling, there’d be no more confusion!! Hook a girl up!!!
On September 30th, 2009 at 5:47 pm SciFi Dad Says:
Dude, I had a V300 too.
On September 30th, 2009 at 5:31 pm DG at Diaryofamadbathroom Says:
Girl, you know that was ALL KINDS OF SEXY in 2002.
On September 30th, 2009 at 6:15 pm stacey@Havoc&Mayhem Says:
I love that! I’d never own it personally but I love it. I’ve always wanted to be the sort of girl who does bright sparkly bling like that, only in purple instead of pink. But I can’t bling. I stare at it and stare at it, but it just so isn’t really me

oh. em. gee. Bitchen.
On September 30th, 2009 at 8:15 pm Celeste Says:

Hahaha. Actually, that’s kinda cute.
On September 30th, 2009 at 9:10 pm Vinomom Says:
Totally sending you my cell to Bejewel it.

Just kidding it’s a blackberry – I can’t have you covering the screen w/ plastic shit in a Big V.
On September 30th, 2009 at 9:38 pm Love Says:
If by old cell phone you mean, 30 years old, awesome. If its any newer than that…oh Aunt Becky. Oh God, girl. No. Nooooooooo!
On September 30th, 2009 at 10:57 pm Ms.V Says:
I’m sorry. Is it bad that I liked it?
On September 30th, 2009 at 11:03 pm GingerB Says:
I’d probably have that phone if it didn’t make it too damn appealing for my three year old to be able to keep her paws off it. I have basic black silicone so it won’t be so inviting but I covet a pink satin case with dangly charms.
On October 1st, 2009 at 12:14 am Brianna Says:
In our house, old cell phones = kiddie toys, so no jewel choking hazards. But I’d totally bling out my old phones if we didn’t have munchkins. Totally bitchin.
On October 1st, 2009 at 2:11 am Sara @ Life with the Two Says:
Too awesome, because it is your OLD phone. I would totally let you be my relative, and would be the one to call you while we were in public together just so you could pull that baby out and show the world!
On October 1st, 2009 at 5:55 am Caroline Says:
That’s awesome. Did you do it yourself? Tacky is SO in right now, I mean have you seen what the kids are wearing?
On October 1st, 2009 at 5:30 am Kristin Says:
I know it wasn’t done with one but why does that scream Bedazzler http://www.stirrup-queens.com/2009/09/the-72nd-circle-time-the-show-and-tell-weekly-thread/ to me?
On October 1st, 2009 at 6:56 am dubiousMa Says:
Okay, let’s see the pic of the bejeweled jeans….we KNOW there is one.
On October 1st, 2009 at 7:32 am Melissa Says:
Totally looks like an “Amber Moore creation”. Bonus points if you know what that means. 🙂

That is so tacky and unrefined that it is AWESOME!
On October 1st, 2009 at 8:35 am Badass Geek Says:
Classy.
On October 1st, 2009 at 10:38 am Lis0r Says:
Oh, Aunt Becky. This is…Wow. See if I did that, I’d get nothing but “Laverne” comments.

Also, really? You’d besmirch your almighty iPhone with those? If you’re going to pretty it up you need to use Swarovskis for it! Go hard or go home!

Also, Ed SHOULD get comment-of-the-thread award.

Whoa, I’ve heard about these, seen some, this one is so tricked out, where is the motion neon sensor?? Big Pimpin.
On October 1st, 2009 at 1:51 pm Jen Anderson Says:
Please tell me that you’ll be giving this phone away in a blog contest.
On October 1st, 2009 at 5:00 pm Clair Jordan Says:
Melissa. my first thought when I saw that phone was that Aunt Becky had mugged Amber Moore and stolen her phone.

Way to own it, Aunt Becky
On October 1st, 2009 at 8:47 pm Nicole Says:
Dude. I have always wanted to Bedazzle something! Please tell me you clipped that bad-boy on your fanny pack and walked around with the similarly encrusted ear piece. Bitchin’.
On October 1st, 2009 at 9:33 pm Lola Says:
What the fuck?
On October 1st, 2009 at 8:55 pm lala Says:
I. Want. One. Seriously, if it wouldn’t distract me every five seconds while it was sitting on my desk at work, I would SO do that.
On October 2nd, 2009 at 8:33 am Christy aka Aunt Crazy y'all Says:
That thing is crazy with the sexy…LOL!!! My daughter and I joked that when she has her ankle surgery and is back in the famous, ugly as fucking hell, boot, we’ll need to ask someone to bejewel it with Christmas colors and shit cuz surely that will 1) make it all purdy and shit and 2) make her feel better about being back in the damn boot over Christmas!!!
