Introduction: How to Make a Mario Mushroom Keychain

About: I'm a professional writer and an amateur sewist, builder, hot gluer, dremel user, crocheter, painter, paper crafter, and baker.

Today I made this cute little Mario mushroom keychain with felt. All it took was red, tan, white and black felt, paper for making the pattern, stuffing, a keychain loop, thread and a sewing needle! It was really easy, and I'm going to share with you how I did it. :)

Step 1: Making the Pattern

I traced a mushroom of the size I wanted off of my computer screen (don't make fun of me. It worked didn't it?) and cut the pieces out. You could easily print a picture of the mushroom as well.

Step 2: Cutting the Pieces

I pinned the pieces to the felt and cut them out. Make sure to cut two red mushroom pieces, two tan face pieces, two side circles, two eyes and one whole circle.

Step 3: Sewing

Then I sewed all of the pieces on/together using a regular stitch and a blanket stitch. During this step, I decided to grab some extra felt and make a loop at the top so I can hang it from things.

Step 4: Stuffing

I stuffed it with regular stuffing and then sewed the hole closed. I also chose to add a keychain loop on the top. It was pretty easy and I completed it while watching an episode or two of Malcolm in the Middle
