2. Then we need to prepare an ordinary pliers. It is best if you have a vise at home. This is a tool for making keychains.

4. Then fold one-third of the two sides to the two sides.
5. Then stagger one of the pieces forward at the first bend, and bend it straight with pliers.
6. Then use pliers to clamp the part that has just been straightened. It is worth noting that the bent part needs to face down.
7. Next, use pliers to clamp the root, and then start winding the welding wire that was bent before. It is worth noting that the welding wire needs to be close to the root when winding.
8. Then bend the double-strand welding wire. Here you can find a cylindrical object to assist, because the welding wire needs to be bent into a semicircle.
9. Then bend the double-strand welding wire upwards at the front end, and make the single-strand welding wire at the rear end into a key ring, just bend it twice. You can also find a slightly smaller cylindrical object to assist.

Cover the big circle on the front of one of the squares, and then use the thread of the same color as the square fabric to sew four times on the side of the big circle at the midpoint of the four sides of the square (one each at the top, bottom, left, and right sides), and then use Gold thread sews two more even stitches down the middle of each quarter. The stitched figure should look like a clock.
4. Use the red thread to sew the small circle and the big circle together. Where it is directly opposite to the diagonal of the square, the red thread should be sewed longer, and the rest should be sewed shorter. The design of long and short lines will be more three-dimensional.
5. Use red thread to sew the button to the middle of the small circle. Remember to sew a few more stitches to make the button more stable. If you don't want to sew buttons, you can also use hot glue to glue other small accessories to the middle of the small circle.
