Are you in need of something fun for your keychain?? I’ve got ya covered! This was up at Skip To My Lou earlier this year, but I wanted to share it here in case you missed it.
It’s a Linked Keychain, and I made it as a teacher gift, but it would look awesome for yourself with any sort of image – mascot, picture of your kiddos, etc. I’m just too lazy to change the “teacher gift” label I stamped on the picture – so just use your imagination to think outside of that box 🙂
I want to show you how to make a Linked Keychain with Charm. It is a fun and unique way for teachers to carry their school pride with them from place to place. You will need:
- 6 keychain rings
- 1 keychain clip
- 1 glass tile mascot charm
Side note on the glass tile charm – some options on that – the mascot image (or any other image you love!), or a small photo, or a bit of scrapbook paper design, or even a monogram initial – the ideas are endless!
You can find a mascot charm at local shops or easily make one via my Glass Pendant Tile tutorial.
First, take one keychain ring and thread on 4 additional rings (all threaded on the original ring), as shown:
Then spread it out so you have 2 rings on top, the original ring in the middle, and two more rings on the bottom. Attach the final additional ring to the bottom two rings, as shown:
Next thread on your charm to that bottom single ring.
And hook the top two rings into the clip:
That’s it! When your links are all assembled, you will have a fun and unique keychain like so:
So fun! Love the dimension of the big links that comprise the keychain:
