Does your child love hanging keychains on their school bags, shopping bags, etc.? If so, then surprise them with these adorable DIY food plushie keychains. You can easily make this avocado-shaped keychain with felt and some basic sewing techniques. Why make it exclusively for kids? You can also make them for yourself to attach your house keys, car keys, etc.

Materials

  • Felt (light green, dark green, brown, black, and pink color)
  • Embroidery thread (white, pink, brown, and black)
  • Embroidery needle
  • Scissors
  • Fiberfill
  • Jump ring
  • Keyring

Procedure

  1. To make the DIY food plushie keychains, draw an avocado shape on scrap paper. Then, cut it out. You can then use the avocado cutout to get the exact shape from light green and dark green felt.
  2. Cut a large circle from brown felt and two small circles from black and pink felt.
  3. Thread your brown embroidery thread through the needle and sew on the brown circle. Then, stuff it with some fiberfill when you’re most of the way around.
  4. Use your black thread to sew the eyes on the avocado. The cheeks will use pink thread instead for the adorable blush.
  5. To make the plushies cuter, add reflections in the eyes. All you need is a small piece of white thread. Then, you can make a smile using the black thread.
  6. The keyring will attach to a jump ring, so sew that to the top of the dark green avocado shape.
  7. Pin the two shapes together and sew around the edge. Leave a tiny opening to stuff the plushie with fiberfill.
  8. Finally, add the key ring to the jump ring to finish your cute avocado keychain.

Your cute DIY food plushie keychain is ready to be used. Similarly, you can make various food plushie keychains with different colored felt and threads.
