Faux Leather Lace Keychains

Faux Leather Keyfobs

Hello,

Here my first sewing project in 2025! I made a fresh batch of faux leather lace keychains or key fobs! These keychains has been quite popular last year in the shop! The laces are really pretty and bought it from one of seller from Mumbai on Instagram. I love shopping online but sometimes they don't live up to your expectations. I heard so many stories from fellow crafters. So it's always better to check with your crafter friends before buying online. 

For now, I have green, light brown and orange keychains that are ready to ship. I have a few good quality faux leather I bought from local furnishing shop. The faux leather is imported ones so they won't peel off easily. It's pretty strong and I have used it making a few bags in the past. This year I really have to start using the rest of the faux leather. Let's see!

Light Brown Keyrings

This keychains are so versatile. It can be used to carry keys, of course, and it’s also great as an accessory for your purse, backpack or tote bag. It’s definitely pretty enough to use as a gift for someone you love, too.

The holiday season is over and yesterday we dropped the elder son at the airport for his midnight flight back to Singapore. There was a little drama in the morning, as suddenly his Indigo flight was cancelled and he has to be at the University on the 6th Morning. All of us was frantically looking for alternative flights. Since we don't live in Metro city, we only have a few options for International flights to the South East Asia that offer faster travel time. There was Druk Air which fly directly to Singapore but it already departed in the morning. After looking at all options, we decided to book with Air Asia. Luckily the seat are still available for that day and the flight is at midnight. 

 

Newly installed Digi Yatra gate

In a way it was a blessing in disguise. When booking Indigo a few weeks ago, my son kept saying he wish he could fly out from here instead of transiting in Kolkata. His wish came true! Alhamdulillah. It was also less tension for us as parents. I hope we will have more international flight from here this year. Right now for direct international flight we only have Air Asia (LCC) and Druk Air (full service). Although the fare is a bit higher compared to other big cities, but we can save a lot of travel time and hassle. 

Thank you for stopping by today!

Have a nice day,

More Passport Wallet and Keyfobs

Hello again,

After a round of viral flu in our family during the last week of August and first week of September, now I'm back to sew again and has a long list of stuff (orders and not) that I have to finish. In the meantime I finished a couple of family passport wallets and also keyfobs. 

Hello London Travel Wallet

Looks like my customers love the zip around passport holder and if you already got the passport wallet patterns, you can check this Tutorial for zip around closure. 

World Map Passport Holder

The map passport holder above is for 8 passport slot. I do love the green combo. This is the second one that I made for custom order. I got the fabric from an Etsy seller in the US. It's Tim Holt's Eclectic Elements. I got several map prints together to save up on the shipping. Shipping for US to India is quite expensive and on top of that I had to pay for custom duty. But it's worth it! Don't you think? 

Disney and Elephant Key fobs

The fabric key fobs and key rings are so much fun to make. It's such a scrap friendly project that you can sew it in a jiffy. The Disney key fobs only available for 2 pieces above. That's the only pieces I have left in my stash. 

 I especially love the denim keyring. I wanted to use the fobs like the Minnie Mouse key fobs but it turned out it's too thick for the fob to set in. My sons and DH love the swivel hook version though, because it's easier to attach and detach your keys. 

Which one is your fave? 

Ah btw, I had  a lovely gathering last Saturday with fellow crafter/artist! Mostly are young crowds and I love their enthusiasm, which is very contagious! We're planning an exhibition sometime before Diwali here in Guwahati. Subscribe to my Blog to get the updates for follow my Instagram.

That's all from last week. I'm going to work on a couple of wallet orders this week and Insha Allah will start writing a new pattern when the sons' exam is finished. 

Until next time,

Happy Sewing!
