Keychains, how do they work? (Patreon)
Content
Been slowly trying to make some key chains to sell and wanted to show my experiments. I bought these circular blanks which are really cute! There are some square and rectangular ones I could consider as well. I think many artists will find a manufacturer for keychains to make the super pretty custom ones, but for now I think this method will work for me!I experimented with some designs that have see through elements, like the mew and that Vaporeon (from last month's sticker art). I think it looks pretty cool, but it is hard to put together the pieces for the keychain properly. This method required printing two images and lining them up perfectly within the keychain. The eyeballs were a simple design that I used to see how it felt to put together two whole pieces without any cut-outs and I love it! It was much easier to do, but also i think the eyeballs are actually really fun. Future designs are probably going to fill the whole space and then I could use the same design for a pin too.ALSO I started applying for some local anime conventions. No idea if I'll get in. They are raffles so it will be random. One of them does not allow the sale of stickers though. So if I get into that con I may have to change up sticker clubs for a bit to focus on prints and keychain merch, which I want to expand on anyways.
