Introduction: How to Make a Para Cord Keychain
Today, I'll teach you how to make a para cord keychain (1 color). 2 color coming soon
Step 1: Gather Your Materials
You will need paracord, a lighter, a knife or scissors, and a cutting board( optional)
Step 2: Select Your Color of Paracord
It's your choice of color, dark or bright.
Step 3: Measure Out Your Paracord
Normally 1' of paracord will make 1" of keychain. So use anywhere between 3'- 5'
I will be using 4'
Step 4: Cut Your Paracord
Using you knife or scissors.
Step 5: Wick Your Ends
Using your lighter, melt the ends, and pinch them with your fingers.
Step 6: Fold the Cord in Half
Then simply follow the pictures, making the knot, and pulling it tight.
Step 7: Tie the Same Knot
Tie the same knot over and over again using opposite sides.
Step 8: Cut Off Your Ends
Cut off your ends and wick them, smudging the ends to the keychain so it looks neat.
Step 9: And Voila!
You now have a cool paracord keychain :)
