INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cut one (or two) paper pieces to the desired size of 1-1/4″ x 1-3/4″.  Optionally, you can fussy cut an image and/or sentiment for layering.
  2. If needed, adhere the fussy cut image(s) to the front layer.  Be mindful of the design on the back; sometimes, a single layer may suffice. 
  3. If a pattern is required for the back, attach it to the reverse of the front piece.
  4. Insert your assembled image, front side down, into the larger section of the keychain.  Note that the back piece has a small protrusion.  Slide this into the bottom opening of the front piece and secure it by pressing down on the other end.  Some adjustments may be necessary.
  5. If you are using a tassel, you can now slide it onto the ring part.
