Materials:
Key-chain
Felt
Glitter Paint
Cotton Swabs
Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
Thin ribbon and/or metallic cord
Directions:
When at Disney World, I found out that the nearby Walmart has an amazing Disney souvenir section, priced much less that the shops at Disney World.
I found these large key-chains and thought they would be great as Christmas Ornaments.
First, remove the key-ring, leaving the jump ring intact. Keep the jump ring for another project.
Next, hot glue the shape to felt.
Use sharp scissors to carefully cut out the shape. My spring-loaded craft scissors do the job well!
And now for the fun part...
Lay the shape "face up" on a protected surface. Use a Q-Tip or small artist paint brush to sparingly apply glitter paint to the front of the shape.
Tip: Remember, apply glitter paint sparingly. You can always all more, if needed.
When dry, insert a 12" piece of 1/8" ribbon in the jump ring, and tie an overhand knot in the end.
Insert one end of a 15" piece of 5/8" sheer ribbon through the front of the jump ring. Tie a knot in the center, and then tie a bow.
Apply Fray Check to the ends of the ribbon to prevent raveling.
Who would guess this used to be a key-ring? |
