I love the cover plates! They are so fun to customize! Find something you like and paint it! I normally use spray paint to get the color and put tape in places I DONT want to get colored. MAKE SURE IF YOU USE SPRAY PAINT TO TAKE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and please use a clear coat or mod podge or something! You can also use stickers or 3d clay objects! Its all up to you! I LOVE CUSTOMIZING 3DS COVER PLATES!!!
