Key Fob

My nephew Reese inspired this key fob.  He is a Wisconsin Badger fan so the colors were going to be red and white.  The idea behind the design was too be simple and clean with a little edge.  Having some small pieces left over from previous projects and a Schmuckatelli Mind Skull bead produced his fob.

The 425 Tactical Paracord SC Red Imperial for the foundation and the Celtic knot for the stopper.  The 275 Tactical Paracord Glow-in-the-Dark White for the ribs.  The ribs are a figure 8 knot with a stopper knot on top and below the skull.

On the white paracord I applied wax to it before tying.  You can use paraffin or scented candle wax. The wax will help with repelling dirt and grime.  Good thing about paracord it washes clean easily.
