It is hard to get much done when Kara is here but these key fobs were a breeze to make. The only hang up was picking and resizing the fonts to fit on the fob. The big girls have given me a list a mile long already of key fobs they need as gifts for friends and co-workers. They cost next to nothing to make!!! I need to research for the hardware on line this week to see if I can find a better price than the $2.50 @ our local store charges.
I found two tutorials that will give you a great start if your interested in giving key fobs a try. The first one at SheSewChic uses ribbons instead of fabric. Seeing as how I am trying to use up my scraps it took a little more work on my part but if it's free it's for me!!
The next place you might want to check out is iheartsewing she has a great tutorial using only scraps, no need to buy the webbing like I used which will cut the cost even more!
It's way past my bedtime, I have been trying to get some things done tonight as I have all three toddlers tomorrow. Why I even bother when the place will be upside down in a skinny minute? I hate to start the day behind the eight ball.
Is anyone else doing the 30 Item Scrap Challenge. How is it going for you?
Very cute! I made some similar ones for my Dd and me awhile back. Ours are not monogrammed but have ruffles. I like how I can keep my keys on my wrist when I am out and also trying to keep up with littles.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how you get anything done with your grands around- I think I do good if I do a little laundry and unload the dishwasher when they are here :)
It's another snow day here so I have another day to myself and after I do some housecleaning, I'll be sewing.m
I don't have all of them each day any more Rhonda!! Kara 4 days a week, the others when the new sitter needs time off. They are a HANDFULL for sure!!! Tonight I will be flate on my back I can tell you! Ha
