DIY Rope Tassel Keychains


 I have been holding onto these beautiful brass swivel hooks to make keychains for ages. I thought I would do something  with leather but then became inspired by a bracelet-making kit my daughter has. I love when a craft project from simple supplies that you have in the cabinet turns into something so amazing. I have to be honest here, this is one of my favorite craft projects yet! I think the rope wrapped in embroidery thread so reminds me of friendship bracelets of my past.

 

I look at these DIY rope tassel keychains as my grown-up friendship bracelets – I cannot wait to give them to my friends! What a perfect little gift to give a friend, for no reason than to let them know how much they mean to you. You can personalize them and make them meaningful to friends by using favorite colors or patterns. Read more for the full how-to for this DIY rope tassel keychain.

Steps

 

Cut rope to 13 inches.

Fray the edges of rope by gently pulling apart the ends. Fray 2 inches of each end.

Bring the two frayed ends together and secure by wrapping scotch tape around the two pieces of rope. Add a bit of glue on (what you determine to be) the back side.

Choose your first color of thread. Place the end of thread on the glue and let the quick dry glue dry quickly. Wrap the thread tightly around the two ropes (see picture). When you end the first color, add more glue to the back and tuck in the end of thread with the embroidery needle.

When starting your next color, tuck the start of thread into the previous color. Add a bit more glue.

When you finish, add more glue and tuck the end in the tightly wrapped thread.

You can add as many colors and layers of embroidery thread as you like. I loved doing a color blocking pattern.

Is Sublimation Paper the Same as Heat Transfer Paper?

图片
In the realm of garment printing and crafting, confusion often arises between sublimation paper and   heat transfer paper . While both are vital tools in the process of transferring designs onto various surfaces, they serve distinct purposes and possess unique characteristics. Understanding the disparities between these two types of paper is crucial for achieving optimal results in your printing endeavors. Sublimation Paper: Unveiling its Essence Sublimation paper  is a specialized medium used primarily in sublimation printing—a technique that involves transferring dye onto materials such as fabrics, ceramics, and metals through a process of sublimation. Sublimation occurs when a solid substance transitions directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. In sublimation printing, heat and pressure are applied to sublimation paper, causing the solid dye particles to sublimate and bond with the surface of the substrate. The key characteristic of sublimation paper is its uniq
