Introduction
Adding a touch of charm to your crafting tools can make your hobby even more enjoyable. One way to do this is by creating your own tassel scissor fob. Not only does it add a pop of personality to your scissors, but it also keeps them easily accessible during your crafting sessions. Follow this step-by-step guide to create your own tassel scissor fob.
Materials Needed
- Embroidery floss in your choice of colors
- Scissors
- Keychain ring
- Needle
Step 1: Create the Tassel
Choose your desired colors of embroidery floss and cut a piece that is approximately 6 inches long. Cut another piece of floss that is about 12 inches long. Take the longer piece of floss and wrap it around your fingers multiple times to create a loop. Slide the loop off your fingers and tie the shorter piece of floss around the loop, leaving a tail to attach it to the keychain ring later.
Step 2: Trim and Attach the Tassel
Cut through the loops of the floss at the opposite end of the tied section to create the tassel. Trim any uneven ends to ensure a clean look. Thread the needle with the tail of floss left from tying the tassel and pull it through the top of the tassel to secure it. Attach the tassel to the keychain ring by tying the floss securely around it.
Step 3: Add Embellishments (Optional)
If you want to add some extra flair to your tassel scissor fob, consider adding beads, charms, or other decorative elements. You can thread these onto the floss before tying the tassel or attach them separately with additional floss or hot glue.
Step 4: Attach to Your Scissors
Once you are satisfied with the look of your tassel scissor fob, simply attach it to the handle of your scissors using the keychain ring. Make sure it is securely fastened so it doesn't come loose during use.
Conclusion
Creating your own tassel scissor fob is a fun and easy way to add a touch of personality to your crafting tools.

Follow these steps to make your own unique tassel scissor fob and enjoy the added flair it brings to your crafting projects.
