One dedicated Game of Thrones fan recently made this super nerdy Game of Thrones phone stander shaped like a miniature replica of the Iron Throne from the hit fantasy show. This step by step tutorial teaches you how to turn pink styrofoam and plastic cocktail swords into an epic replica of the Iron Throne.
In the world of the Game of Thrones, whoever sits on the Iron Throne controls the Seven Kingdoms. Then by extension, having the Iron Throne as your smartphone holder means that you're the king -- or queen -- of Westeros. To make this fun fantasy phone holder, begin by cutting out a chair-like shape from a piece of pink styrofoam. Add tiny straps of leather and plastic cocktail swords with a glue gun and spray paint the throne an eerie dark gray.
