December 2020
The best holiday gifts are the ones you make yourself. Levi’s® Tailor Masayuki Den from Japan shares a crafty way to create cool keychains out of old denim. They’re cute and easy enough for kids to pull off.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
• Old Denim
• Bandana
• Key ring
• String
• Ruler
• Scissors
• Marking chalk
STEP 2
Lay old denim flat and draw thin lines using the ruler and chalk. Mark off 8-10 ribbons ½” wide and 12-14” long.
STEP 3
Cut the bandana the same way you cut the denim, making an additional 3-4 ribbon pieces.
STEP 4
Stack all ribbon pieces together and feed them through the hole of the key ring, making sure they are all the same length.
STEP 5
Using string, tie the ribbons together tightly near the key ring. Cut off excess string.
STEP 6
Once tied, twist and work the denim pieces together, causing them to fray slightly.
STEP 7
To complete the look, twist each ribbon tightly, one by one to create a curl effect.
STEP 8
Wrap it and give it to someone with a key to your heart.
