Supplies List for the Cricut Summer Keychains Event
This list contains all of the supplies and materials I used to make all of the keychain designs featured in the Cricut Summer Keychains Event.
Below you will find:
- General supplies list used for making faux leather keychains with a Cricut.
- ALL the faux leather and vinyl I used to make each of the sample projects.
- Project supply lists so you know what is used to make each project.
A note about these supply lists:
These lists are designed to be helpful for you as you craft along with the Cricut Summer Keychains Event. If something I link to is out of stock, please don’t let that discourage you from creating keychains you’ll love!
Most of these colors can be substituted and used with what you have on hand.
Use your imagination and take my samples as a starting point.
Use materials you have on hand and shop for additional colors and patterns you love to create truly original earrings from the event SVG templates. I can’t wait to see what you create. 🙂
You can also use heat transfer vinyl to “create” a color of faux leather you don’t have. You can see how I do this in this video on my YouTube channel.
