Flower Keychain

The trick to not failing is… heat control!! 1) The cleanest finish is with a hot water bath (but it takes time to melt!). 2) If you have an oven, check after about 2 minutes at 200°C and reheat if needed! ↑ I don’t have one, so I couldn’t test this 🙏 3) If you have a toaster oven, start checking after 1 minute on the lowest setting. Doing 2 sets of 1 minute at 170°C will almost completely melt it! If you heat it all at once, bubbles will form, so I recommend low and slow! It’s definitely better to make one test piece rather than jumping straight into the real thing 🙌🏻 Also, even if you pack it full, the glue volume will shrink a lot once it melts, so add clear glue partway through and aim to fill it so it’s just shy of overflowing the mold—then it turns out nicely 😊 Materials: • Glue sticks — having clear as well as colored is GOOD • Mold • Glitter • Screw eye pins (heaton) • Ball chain • Backing card When an adult’s help is needed: • Glue sticks are hard, so have an adult do the cutting • Right after heating it’s very hot, so adults should be careful too! • Attaching the screw eye pins is a bit tough, so it’s good for an adult to handle 😊 Other than that, let the child take the lead and just watch over the parts they can do—it’ll be fine! Hope you make a wonderful gift 🌟 Cost breakdown (about 300 yen): • Clear glue sticks: ~50 yen (half a pack) • Colored glue sticks: ~40 yen (less than half a pack) • Screw eye pins: ~10 yen • Chains: 200 yen (2 packs) ← This is the pricey part 😂#AtHomePlayEducationalwork#Graduation from kindergarten　HandmadePresent

Let’s try making keychains using colorful glue sticks.

Glue sticks are used with a glue gun, a tool that bonds with heat, and they come in a variety of colors.

Cut the glue sticks into short pieces and place them into a mold.

If you add glitter to the mold as well, you’ll get a sparkly keychain.

After heating in a toaster oven or regular oven, remove them from the mold once they’ve hardened.

Trim any excess that sticks out with scissors, attach the keychain hardware, and you’re done.

Depending on the mold, you can make many at once, so they could make great gifts for friends.

aroma wax sachet

[DIY] Make stylish aroma sachets with almost all 100-yen materials

Why not try making aroma sachets with paraffin wax? You’ll need paraffin wax, your favorite essential oils and dried flowers, a silicone mold, and so on.

The process is very simple: pour melted paraffin wax mixed with essential oil into a silicone mold, add dried flowers when it starts to set slightly, and let it harden completely.

If you make a hole and thread a ribbon or jute string through it, it’s easy to hang in places like closets.

You can get everything at a 100-yen shop, so it’s an easy idea to try.

It also makes a gift that people will love.
