I had a key chain hardware kit that has been in my hardware bag<\/a> for a long time. I was with my Mom the other week and she kept dropping her cane, then struggling to pick it up off the ground. I saw that it had a place for a ring or key chain. The two pieces of the puzzle clicked together in my mind and I made her a key ring that she can use as a ‘cane chain’.<\/p>\n

Cane Chain for Mom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I had everything necessary to make it on hand.<\/p>\n

I used a piece of Pink Sands webbing<\/a>**, and the Dritz key fob hardware kit<\/a>** as well as some Renaissance Ribbon<\/a>** leftover from Who Am I?<\/a> It was a very quick project.<\/p>\n

The webbing was slick and I couldn’t get the ribbon embellishment to stay in place. I think using a cotton webbing (or strapping) would have alleviated that problem, but I used what I had on hand and Mom didn’t mind. I could have also glued it in place. That can be difficult with a textured surface like polyester webbing, but it is doable, especially for a temporary hold. Lessons learned for next time.<\/p>\n
