DIY Photo Keychain | How to Make a Personalized Photo Keychain with a Cricut OR Cut by Hand

Join me as I make a DIY Photo Keychain with a Cricut! This is a great Cricut project for beginners, and a fun and easy faux leather tutorial. Photo keychains make great gifts and are easy to personalized with custom text cut from heat transfer vinyl on the Cricut.

I'll show you step by step how to make these photo keychains as a fun and easy faux leather craft. Use a Cricut Maker, an Explore Air 2, or even the Cricut Joy. You can even cut these keychain shapes by hand. I'll give you a PDF template for hand cutting. Skip to 3:12 for more information about hand cutting these photo keychains.
