Key chain for dads makes a great Father’s Day gift or even a birthday gift for daddies. These key chains are quite simple to make and children can make them on their own. Dads will cherish the key chain and carry it around proudly.
Supplies You Will Need
- 12” round key chain
- Alphabet beads
- Football beads
- Small round or heart beads
- Hemp or jewelry cord
Instructions
Step 1: Start by tying two or three knots on one end of the hemp or jewelry cord. This will keep the beads from falling off.
Step 2: Now string two hearts, then a football and the word “EVER” starting with the letter ‘R’ first, in the cord.
Step 3: String one football bead and then bead the word “DAD” in the cord.
Step 4: String another football and then the word “BEST” starting with the letter ‘T’ first.
Step 5: Lastly, add the fourth football and two heart beads.
Step 6: Now, tie a knot as close to the heart bead as possible, to keep all the beads close together. Tie a second knot to secure them properly.
Step 7: Tie the long end of the hemp or jewelry cord (closest to the word “BEST”) to the key chain. Fasten the knot several times to ensure security and trim off the excess cord.
Your “BEST DAD EVER” key chain for dads is ready to be gifted. You can bring in desirable changes to the key chain by beading in different messages like “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAD” or “HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD”. And instead of the heart and football shaped beads you can take round beads and beads in the shape of a sport your dad enjoys and personalize the key chain according to his taste.
