Thank you so much for this tutorial and the templates. I am making these for approximately 100 nurses and you saved me hours of trying to figure this out.

Please share information on opening and closing the rings. They should only be twisted apart not opened. The if it's twisted, one side in one direction, other side in the opposite direction it won't stretch it out of shape. Then to close the ring all you have to do is twist it back into position. If you twist the ring open by pulling the two ends apart, that's never going to close properly. I learned that in jewelry making. It looks like you did it properly, but other people may not have realized that if they aren't used to opening rings. Thanks for your creativity and for sharing so many great ideas.

I bought the key chain blanks but didn't know what to do with them. Now that i watched this video I can't wait to get started. Thank you for you easy to follow instructions.
I'm so glad you had a little tip to help seal these cute little keychains, had mine for 2 weeks now didn't want to take the material off them bc of scratching, now I'm finally able to add some cute decals to make as small gifts without sweating on just how long it will take for one to get scratched or lose a part of decal. Thank You Jennifer for yet being my crafting savior.

You can but you will still have that rough glitter texture.
Thanks for the video, especially for the tip at the end!! I’m making acrylic bookmarks but was trying to figure out how to seal the vinyl. I had tried UV resin but I couldn’t get it “flat” for that large of a space. I’m going to try Mod Podge. I only have matte, so tomorrow I will head to Michael’s to get gloss. Do you have a video on bookmarks? I tried my engraving tip first but you really can’t see the engraving.

Thank you! This is a very informative video. I do have a question about sealing the key chains. You said to use spray mod pog. I noticed everyone is using resin to seal. Does the mod pog spray give it a good enough seal to protect from scratching and does it create bubbles? Thank you!!
@JenniferMaker
Жыл бұрын
It should not create bubbles but scratching could happen depending on how it is handled.
For the paint stroke ones, where you put it on the backside and then the font on the front. How do you get the paint stroke adhesive side to look smooth (so you can’t tell it’s the adhesive side.) I tried it and you can tell it’s the adhesive side as you can see the texture.
Hi there - love your videos! Can the mod podge in glue form work or do you think the spray works best?

I think the spray works best, but you don't even need to seal it if you are using permanent vinyl.💗
