How to make custom lanyards

If you’re like me and want to be able to wear a lanyard with your keys or badge attached to it, then this is the article for you! In this tutorial we’ll go over how to make custom lanyards that fit your needs perfectly.

Decide on a design and the purpose of the lanyard. Who do you want to wear it, and why? What are they going to need attached to it?

You have the option to make a lanyard for any purpose. The main thing to consider is who will wear it and why? What do they need attached to it? How are they going to use their lanyard? If you’re making a custom lanyard for someone, make sure that you think about all the factors involved in their decision-making process.

The first step is to cut a long piece of string or ribbon. You’re going to want this to be longer than you think it needs to be, because you can always trim it down later.

Next, measure the length that fits between your two hands and then divide by 2 (so if your arms are crossed in front of each other, measure from one hand’s knuckles). This will give you an idea of how much string should fit into each pocket on your lanyard.

If you don’t have a ruler handy and need help eyeballing it: Lay something flat across both ends of your lanyard as an aid; then measure from corner-to-corner along its length until all four sides have been accounted for (you’ll probably find this easier than holding up four pieces at once). Or simply hold one end up against yourself until it falls where it should naturally fall—this method works best when working with smaller pieces like our standard 1″ x 5/8″ or 2″ x 3/4″. Once they’re measured out correctly and tied into place using their respective knots (which we’ll cover below), there’s no need for further adjustments unless they’re needed later on down the line!

Once you have your length figured out, begin braiding or knotting your cord. Tip: If you want more detail on how to create basic knots, check out this page from About.com .

Once your cord is braided or knotted into loops, trim away any excess with scissors and cut the ends off at an angle so they don’t fray as much when worn around the neck.

Once the cord is braided (or knotted), choose which end you want to be the top end and which end will be tied around your neck (this will also determine which side will bear the most weight). For the bottom end, slip a small stopper bead onto the string. This bead should be big enough that it won’t slide up over the knot tied by your neck strap.

Once all of your components are ready, tie off all three ends together with a square knot or other knot that won’t unravel when stretched out in use.

Now take both ends of your lanyard and feed them through a plastic ring or keyring, and then tie a large loop in those ends. Tip: The larger this loop is, the easier it’ll be to put on and take off — but use common sense here; if you make it too large, your keys or badge will flop around all over the place.

Now that you’ve got your lanyard ready for action (and we’re not talking about how much fun riding on public transportation), let’s talk about what else goes into making custom lanyards.

Now that you have your lanyard all ready to go, you’re ready to start wearing it! It may seem like a little thing, but knowing how to make custom lanyards is actually an essential skill for anyone who wants their own stylish accessory. It’s also a great way for people with ADHD or other attention deficit disorders (ADD/ADHD) because they can easily keep track of everything happening around them when they’re busy doing something else. So don’t be afraid; take this tutorial and learn how easy it is!
