My daughter and I saw the live action version of The Little Mermaid on opening night, and I guess I’ve had mermaids on the brain ever since then!

I absolutely love the variety of vinyl finishes and patterns that StyleTech Craft offers. I immediately reached for the mirror-like vinyls (since they remind me of water). I also finally got to use this gorgeous scalloped glitter vinyl that is perfect for mermaid themed projects!

Vinyl Mermaid Keychain Supplies Used

I started by making 1.9 inch circles in my Silhouette Design Studio. I separated the elements in the SVG file and welded one of the waves to the top of the circle. Then I added and resized the design elements to fit (see the screenshot above). Once I was happy with the way everything looked I separated the elements and cut them out.

After weeding the different elements, I used transfer tape to add the pieces to the keychain blank. You can see the step by step process of transferring each element, working from the back to the front, in this 45 second video.
