How to Make Your Own Acrylic Keychains?

Although we are a keychain manufacturer, I am also eager to teach individuals how to make acrylic keychains themselves.

When you want to create your own acrylic keychains, please note that you will need the following materials or equipment:

1. A laser cutter (around $200 on Amazon)

2. Transparent acrylic blanks (approximately $10-20)

3. Keyrings (very inexpensive)

Here’s the process for making your keychain:

1. Print your designed artwork on paper.

2. Place the paper between two transparent acrylic blanks.

3. Punch a hole in the appropriate spot.

4. Use the laser cutter to trim away the excess material.

5. Attach the key ring through the hole.

Note: Please be aware that most household laser cutters have lower power and cannot operate continuously for long periods. Therefore, if you plan to produce in bulk, it’s best to contact a manufacturer to handle the production.

Now, let’s get back to the topic of acrylic keychain products.

Are acrylic keychains good?

Acrylic keychains are affordable, durable, and can be customized in almost every way. The surface of an acrylic keychain can be covered with a transparent protective film to prevent damage from sharp objects.

However, acrylic surfaces with a hardness below 3H are prone to scratching. In addition to high strength and a glossy finish, acrylic is tough and not easily damaged. Unlike metal, it doesn’t become uncomfortably cold in winter. Its vibrant colors cater to different preferences, and it has strong repairability.

For minor surface scratches, you can use a soft foam or cloth with a small amount of toothpaste to gently rub the scratched area, then rinse off the toothpaste residue. If the scratches are more severe, I suggest discarding the current keychain and getting a brand-new acrylic one.

Can I wash acrylic keychains?

Of course, just like I mentioned in my previous response, you can gently wipe it with soft foam. If you want a more thorough cleaning, mix a few drops of dish soap with warm water and gently wipe it with a soft cloth. You’ll have a brand-new old acrylic keychain again—haha.

Do acrylic keychains break easily?

If your acrylic keychain is very thin or if the key ring hole is too narrow, the first scenario might result in the keychain not being strong enough, causing it to break from the middle. The second scenario could lead to the key ring pulling and breaking the hole.

Do acrylic keychains scratch easily?

Of course, but you can cover the surface of your acrylic keychain with a transparent protective film to minimize accidental scratches as much as possible.

How to remove film from acrylic keychain?

When our customers receive the acrylic keychains we produce, each keychain is individually packaged in an OPP bag, and a protective film covers the surface of the keychain. This maximizes scratch prevention and ensures that customers receive a flawless product.

Returning to the topic, if you want even more vibrant colors, you can use your fingernail to start peeling from the edge or an easier corner until you can grab enough of the protective film. Then, carefully peel the film off the front of the acrylic. Make sure you’ve gripped enough of the film; otherwise, if the film breaks, you’ll have to start over.

Does acrylic break when dropped?

Acrylic may have the same light transmittance and high gloss as glass, but it doesn’t break as easily as regular glass. It is fully resistant to scratches, corrosion, and UV rays.

Does sunlight damage acrylic?

I think this issue requires a premise, such as temperature or duration. No material in the world can withstand direct sunlight indefinitely. Under normal time or temperature conditions, acrylic keychains won’t be damaged by sunlight. It’s similar to how we don’t stay in the sun all day even after applying sunscreen, right?

Do acrylic keychains last?

Acrylic keychains are scratch-resistant, which means the design on the keychain can be displayed for a long time. They’re also highly durable and not easily worn out. If you don’t mind the protective film, you can peel it off after a few years of use, and you’ll have a keychain that looks brand new again.

Then, what is a custom acrylic keychain?

A custom acrylic keychain is a keychain primarily made from acrylic material, where everything from the shape to the color can be designed and customized according to the creator’s needs. Each keychain design can reflect the designer’s personality and style.

Most keychains on the market are made using transparent acrylic material, but if you want your design to stand out, you can also opt to customize the acrylic material in specific colors.

What are the benefits of custom acrylic keychains?

Acrylic keychains are an excellent companion for your keys. They are affordable and perfect for use as promotional gifts, creative design products for sale, or keychains featuring anime characters.

In addition, acrylic keychains are very sturdy, resistant to wear and tear, and have waterproof properties, so you can carry them with confidence wherever you go.

How to Customize Your Acrylic Keychain?

Customizing a product might sound challenging, but it’s actually quite simple.

Step 1: Finalize Your Design and Size
Your design can be based on a character, company logo, or any creative concept you have in mind. Next, choose the size you want. You can use free online design platforms like Canva or collaborate with a professional designer for more complex acrylic keychain designs. Our company has a professional design team ready to assist you. Simply send us your logo or character concept along with your ideas, and our designers will create the design for you.

Step 2: Choose the Shape
Typically, the shape of acrylic keychains can be cut to match the outline of your design, which is the most popular choice for acrylic keychains today.

Step 3: Confirm Your Order and Wait for Delivery

Customizing a product might sound complicated, but at PeaKeen, we follow the principle of doing the most work so our customers can do the least. Our customers only need to complete three simple steps to get their very own custom-designed acrylic keychains.

Designing your custom acrylic keychain can be an exciting process, but if you’re unsure about what to consider, as an acrylic keychain manufacturer, we might be able to offer you some helpful tips:

Be selective: Acrylic keychains usually have a small surface area, so not every design element needs to be included. Leaving some blank space can make your acrylic keychain more visually appealing.
Use contrasting or complementary colors: Proper color combinations can catch the eye, add depth to your design, and create a strong visual impact.
Choose the right font: Different fonts convey different moods and styles. When paired with your design, the right font can make your keychain’s style instantly recognizable.
Think outside the box: Don’t assume that keychains have to be rectangular. The shape of acrylic keychains can be fully customized based on your design. Take advantage of this flexibility to highlight the uniqueness of your creation.
