How to Make a Leather Tassel Keychain

Today I’m going to show you how to make a leather tassel keychain.  Actually, you can use these leather tassels on jewelry or other places, too.  I just added mine to a keychain along with a couple of vintage pieces I found.

How to Make a Leather Tassel Keychain

  • 2mm leather strips
  • 22 gauge annealed wire
  • 10-12mm fancy open jump ring
  • 6mm small open jump ring – I actually would recommend getting a mix of sizes like this.  They even come in a storage container.  
  • large lobster clasp
  • jewelry pliers & wire cutters – This is my favorite set & it’s VERY inexpensive.
  • scissors
  • 25mm key ring
  • whatever vintage goodies you want to add.  I added:
    • cow ear tag
    • Master lock key

This will be much easier to show you than to try to explain so I included a Facebook Live video that I did a few months ago.   I’d love for you to come join me on my Facebook page.  I try to do a couple of live videos a week.

Leather tassel starts at about 2:50 in the video.

Here’s a better look at the finished keychain:
