Cute charms and who they suit
This is the range for small, sweet things that do not fit neatly anywhere else: little figures, leaves, fruit with a bow on top, soft shapes in pastel colours. Fashion writers reported cute charms coming back from 2021, along with the rest of early-2000s style. These charms suit anyone who wants a phone that looks like theirs and nobody else's, and every one also goes on keys, a bag or a camera strap.
What is here
- A little deer in fabric and alloy, in a soft Korean style, long enough to hang clear of the phone.
- A lucky leaf in pink or green, small and light, made to clip onto a phone case, keys, a schoolbag, a book or a small camera.
- A pink peach in resin with a bow-shaped bead and a little heart, on a chain.
Cute charms also have their own themed ranges, and those are often the quickest way to find the right one: animal phone charms for cats, dogs and bears, fruit and food charms for strawberries and sweets, plush and pompom charms for soft ones, and Y2K phone charms for the bright early-2000s look.
Choosing a cute charm
Cute charms look best when they belong with the case. A case with a face or a character on it suits a charm from the same world: the same colours, the same animal or the same theme. A clear case leaves the charm to do the talking, and a pale pink or cream case goes with almost any pastel charm. If you already have a cute case, take one colour from it and choose the charm in that.
Size matters too. A small charm that hangs just below the phone stays out of the way on a desk and in a pocket. Several charms on one ring tangle and can tap the screen, so keep one on the phone and the rest on a bag.
Questions people ask about cute phone charms
My phone has no strap hole. How does a charm go on?
A lanyard patch sits between the phone and its case, its loop out through the charging-port opening. Some cases have a strap hole: see cases with lanyard holes. The guide to phone charms and straps shows every way.
How do I keep a cute charm clean?
Wipe resin, acrylic and metal with a soft cloth, slightly damp if needed, and dry it straight away. Do not soak a charm on a cord. Fabric charms pick up dirt, so give them a gentle wipe now and then.
Are these charms safe for young children?
Phone charms are not toys. The NHS warns that babies and toddlers put small objects in their mouths and can choke on them, and beads, bells, rings and stones are small parts. Keep charms out of their reach, and never put a strap or cord round a small child's neck.
