Keychains come in a variety of materials, but this article introduces ideas for making them with fabric!

[100-Yen DIY] Easy: Made a Flower Keychain with Color Cord 🌼 | Daiso

Flower keychain

Let’s make a flower keychain using colored cords.

Prepare three colors of cord, a swivel clasp, and a ribbon or cord for finishing.

First, thread one cord through the swivel clasp and tie it tightly at the center.

Cross the two ends of that cord to form a loop, then fold a cord of a different color in half, pass it through the loop, and slide it up to the first cord’s knot.

Fold the first and second cords alternately to form petals.

Partway through, add the third color of cord as well.

Each time you complete one flower, gather the three cords together, pull tight to secure, and continue connecting the flowers.

Once you’ve connected the flowers, tie them into a circle.

Wrap the circle to the swivel clasp with ribbon (or cord), secure with adhesive, and you’re done.
