Here is a fun project to do at home. You don't even need a sewing machine!
Today we are making Custom Couture Pacifier Clips. This would make a great gift for the New Mom or baby in your life.
Here is what you'll need:
Letter Beads
Key Ring
Ribbon
Suspender Clip
Thread
Needle
Snaps or Velcro
1 - 1 1/2 inch Covered Button Kit
Fabric Scraps
For MAM pacifiers and ones with a button rather than a handle: O-Ring, size #17, 7/8" internal diameter - found in the plumbing section of your local hardware store.
Choose a phrase or wording for your Paci-Clip and thread the letters onto the key ring.
Then thread the ribbon through the key ring and suspender clip.
Fold over the ribbon end and sew it to the back of the ribbon.
Sew velcro or snaps to the opposite end of the ribbon.
For a "button" pacifier, add your rubber o-ring, and secure by closing snaps or velcro.
Attach Pacifier to end, either with the o-ring or by securing the velcro/ snap edge around the pacifier handle. (The O-ring will snap right on and remain secure!)
Create your covered button by following the directions on the back of its packaging.
Sew your covered button to the ribbon top, covering over your previous stitches.
TA-DA! How cute is that?
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteHow much ribbon do you use for this?? How long is to long for it to be dangers for the baby? How short is to short?
