aoetken Report post Posted April 19, 2015 I came upon an old leather key fob on the keys of a vehicle I was detailing this past week and asked the owner if I could take it apart to see how it was made and then make a pattern. I offered to put the original back together and then also make her a new one. I made 3 of them with mixed results. The original is in the upper right hand corner of the first picture.

DoubleC Report post Posted April 19, 2015 Would like to see one taken apart too. These are adorable and I would like to sell them at my Farmers Mkt this summer if you don't mind. Cheryl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keableleather Report post Posted April 19, 2015 Theses are GREAT! well done and so inventive and crafty! I too would like to see how you done these! I have a pile of miniature BITS that would be great as the rings between them and the keys!

MonicaJacobson Report post Posted April 20, 2015 So fun! I like yours better than the original, especially the tan one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aoetken Report post Posted April 20, 2015 Yes. I liked the way that one turned out too. Kinda' looks like a buckskin. It was done with light tone antique gel. The black one really turned out nice but the "tan" Fiebings one turned out looking reddish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rusticbob Report post Posted April 21, 2015 Wow, that looks spectacular. I would love to make one for my daughter, a horse lover, if you could share the pattern. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
