scrap leather key chains :: diy

here's an easy & inexpensive diy for gifting on valentine's day...  plus i don't know what it is about a soft leather, but i've been loving it lately.

everyone needs a key chain.  and most people stopped getting them after the age of 17.  so go on... get your craft on this weekend and whip up a nostalgic gift for all you love!

details:

1. cut your scrap leather into hearts, strips or other shapes.  paint onto the leather using fabric paint if desired.
2. fold over the leather strips and use a fabric glue to adhere.  be careful not to glue the leather to the actual key ring.
3. for presentation, punch a hole in cardstock and attach with ribbon or bakers twine.  then paint on a lovely note.

happy weekend friends!
