Within a few steps you can then make beautiful key rings yourself. Making your own unique key rings is great fun for both adults and children and works as follows:

>Choose the shape for the keychain

The first step to making your own keychain is of course to determine what the keychain should look like. Are you going for a letter or a figure? If you know what you want to make, you can choose a suitable silicone mold that fits this.

> Choose the right epoxy

It all starts with epoxy. For making keychains, ready-made UV Resin is usually chosen. You can also choose a two-component epoxy. Ready-made UV Resin hardens within a few minutes and is therefore most suitable for small jewelry and keychains. If you order a starter package for keychains from itsOkay, it is always delivered with UV Resin.

> Add color or decorations

Do you want to add color to your keychain? Or would you rather pour glitter, gold foil or dried flowers? Everything is possible. You add decorations or pigments to the epoxy and create beautiful homemade keychains, completely to your taste!

> Pour the epoxy into the mold

Now it is time to pour the epoxy into the silicone mold. Have you chosen a letter or a shape? It is all possible. Carefully pour the epoxy into the silicone mold. Are you going to pour decorations? Then always do this in layers, so that the decorations do not sink to the bottom. You can also add depth to your epoxy keychain by using layers.

> Curing of the epoxy

The curing time depends on the type of epoxy you use. Follow the curing time on the packaging of the epoxy. Epoxy keychains are usually made with UV resin. UV resin hardens within a few minutes by means of UV sunlight or a UV LED lamp.

> Attach a key ring

Screw a screw eye into your artwork and attach a metal key ring to it. You can make a letter key ring or attach a key ring to a shape such as a fish or a spherical pendant that you have made. Finish your epoxy key ring by removing the sharp edges with a deburrer or scissors.

Create personalized keychains

You can easily make personal keychains with epoxy resin. The keychains are easy to personalize by using different decorations or pigment , which allows you to give your own personal touch to art. For example, you can design a keychain with your favorite decorations or color. Make a keychain for a friend, teacher or teacher completely to his/her taste.
