How to complete this tutorial step by step?
Step 1
Form a lark's head knot around the ring:
1-You fold your ribbon in half.
2-You pull the loop formed through the ring.
3-You pass both ends of the ribbon inside the loop and tighten.
Optionally: you can use ribbons, but also rat-tail cord of Ø 1mm for it to easily pass through your beads.
Step 2: Let's Add Some Colors
It's time to get artistic! Choose your favorite beads and gently slide them onto the ribbon. You can mix all sorts of shades or create a lovely rainbow to make your keychain unique.
Little tip: If the end of the cord frays a bit, you can ask an adult to put a tiny piece of tape on the end to make a stiff point. It will be easier to thread the beads!
Step 3
Once all your pretty beads are properly in place, you need to close the barrier so that they don't escape! Tie a tight knot just after the last bead.
Champion's tip: Make a second knot over the first one. A double knot is twice as strong, and it's worth twice as much as a single one!
Step 4
Cut! To finish beautifully, trim the small end of the ribbon that sticks out just after your double knot.
Caution fingers: Scissors can cut sharply! Don't hesitate to ask an adult for help to do this step safely.
Step 5
Wow, it's beautiful! Your keychain is finally finished and it looks amazing.
