How to Make a Keychain for Small Trinkets
- 1). Cut a 4-inch piece of 16 gauge wire stock with wire cutters.
- 2). Bend one end of the wire stock into a closed loop with needle-nose pliers. Bend only the very end, using only enough wire to make a small loop.
- 3). Slide jump rings onto the straight end of the wire stock. Slide on one jump ring for each trinket you plan to add to the key chain.
- 4). Bend the entire length of wire into a circle with the needle-nose pliers. Slide the straight wire end through the loop and bend it into a loop around the first loop to secure the ring together.
- 5). Pull open each jump ring individually with the needle-nose pliers and string a trinket on each. Close the jump rings by squeezing the ends back together with the pliers.
