Monogram Keychain

It’s no secret that I love an easy craft project especially when it included monograms!  Today I have an easy tutorial for a monogrammed keychain using inexpensive wooden letters.  These letters cost less than $1 making this an easy and inexpensive craft project.  I then decided that my monogram keychain needed something to go with it so I made cute beaded keychains using wood beads.  To make it extra cute, I added a tassel because tassels make everything better.

Want to make your own Wood Monogram and Beaded Keychains?  Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Wooden Letters
  • Wood Beads
  • Large Jump Rings
  • Small Jump Rings
  • Paint in assorted colors
  • Paint Brushes
  • Leather Cording
  • Drill with small drill bit
  • Keyring Lobsters
  • Tassels (optional)

Step 1:  Drill small hole in top of letter.  Paint letter and beads different colors.

Step 2:  Once the paint dries, thread leather cording around keyring and thread beads onto cording.  Tie knot at end.

Step 3:  Add large jump ring to wooden letter and add to keyring.

Step 4:  Add tassel to keyring.

That’s it.  I think the hardest part was choosing what color to paint my beads and letters.

A fun craft project that takes less than 15 minutes to make – not including the time it takes for the paint to dry.  I think this is a great craft project for both kids and adults because everyone needs a Wood Monogram and Beaded Keychain.  And, don’t forget the tassels!
