diy project: faux hermes key ring


this fun project comes to us from desiree of desiree haigh photography. inspired by this luxury leather hermes key ring, she decided to make her own version for $12 instead of $195. using a pair of goodwill pants, a hot glue fun and a $5 bag of keyrings, she created her own diy version. so fun! thanks to desiree for sharing.

The link to the Hermes key ring doesn’t work for me. Got a picture?

My curiosity is piqued, I want to see what the original looked like…

PS, LOVE your blog!

How much fun! I love the original, but could never justify that much for a key ring. I might have to try this!

Wow, this is fantastic! Very elegant and looks like it will be a lot of fun to make. Definitely going on my must-make list. I’ll be linking in The Daily DIY as well. Thanks for the great project!

Ha! Hot glue fun indeed. This would also be cute in different colored leather, too… Goodwills sometimes have old skirts in, say, a hideous green.

Wow! I’ve loved that keychain… but I love yours more! I’m going to make one! I happen to have left over leather from a design project.

Hello-Love to visit your site from Norway :-) I love the keyring,but I also like the stone pillows you have put the keyring on-where are they from?
