Add this custom keychain to the list when the back-to-school season is approaching. It is a cute addition to the backpack charm, or you can use it as a gift for friends.

Supply For Making Chapstick Holder

Use a piece of rectangle fabric and batting with the measurement below for the chapstick holder keychain pattern.

The pouch is closed and secure with the snap button so the chapstick won’t fall out. If the snap button is unavailable, use a button with a buttonhole or a little hook and loop for the fastener.

I used cotton fabric scraps from various projects a while ago, the oversized hot pad, pie plate cozy, and bunny treat bag. The purple one is from the fat quarter bundle I use for making the hexagon coaster.

Fold the fabric in half so the fabric is the exact measurement as the fusible fleece. And the fabric’s right side faces each other.

Put the fusible fleece on top of the fabric. Pin it or use quilting clips.

Measure on one short side, 1 ” from the corner to the long side and 0.5″ from the corner to the short side.

Seal the frayed edge of the ribbon piece by using a lighter.

Fold the ribbon half, then pin it on the non-marked short side between the fabric’s right side.

Clip one of the short side along the marked line. 

Draw the line 0.25″ along the edge for seam allowance.

Sew along the seam allowance line, then skip 2″ for the opening gap.

Clip each corner to reduce bulk.

Turn the fabric right side out.

Push each corner with the chopstick.

Press the fabric with the ironing machine.

Fold the fabric in half, then topstitch on both long sides and close the opening at the same time.

Attach the snap button.

Attach the keyring to the ribbon tab and the swivel lobster clasp.

Put your favourite chapstick in the pouch.

Now your DIY chapstick holder keychain is ready to use. You can attach it to the backpack, purse, or car keys. 

I like to pair it with the quarter keeper holder and then attach it to the car key. These things are convenient to have.

Or fair it with the ruffled key fob wristlet for a fun handmade gift set.
