DIY Holiday Gift Series: Key & Keychain

Give a handmade fabric keychain & a cute colorful key for Christmas...
Difficulty: ♥   ♥ ♥ 
Supplies:
  • 3" x 36" piece of non-stretchy fabric... I used cotton
  • iron ~ you might be able to use a hair straightener  :)
  • metal key chain ring
  • sewing machine or fabric glue
  • key & nail polish for decorating


Take your 3" by 35" cotton fabric, iron in half lengthwise, right side out.
Open it up... 
Fold each side into the center fold...
and iron!
Sew down the long side or iron on fusible tape like steam-a-seam.
Slide a lanyard hook/ key ring onto one strip.
Sew the short ends together with the ring still threaded on strip.
Fold the ends inward, enclosing the ring, & topstitch right above the ring.
All done with the lanyard!
Take a coordinating color of nail polish...
And paint the top half of the key!

Pin It Now!
