Diy Lucky Rabbit Foot Keychain

I hope this is helpful :)

1. Raw Rabbit Feet
2. Borax
3. 70% Rubbing Alcohol
4. Large Jar
5. Jingle Bells
6. Pliers
7. E 6000 or other strong glue
8. Crystals And Charms
9. Keychain Clips
10. Old Pot (only if your rabbit feet are frozen)

If feet are frozen, put them in a pot (that you don’t need again except for repeating this project) and fill with lukewarm water till thawed. Then wash thoroughly with dish soap and water, until no more dirty water comes off the rabbit feet.

Once clean put rabbit feet into the jar and pour the 70% rubbing alcohol until it covers the top of the feet. Let sit for 48 hours

After 48 hours rinse all rabbit feet well and wash jar. Once clean put feet back into jar and fill with a 1/15 ratio of borax to water or one Tbsp borax to each cup water. Let sit for 24 hours

After 24 hours rinse again till all gritty borax is out of the fur then wring out as much water as possible. Then hang up to dry, up to two weeks or until the joints and toes are completely stiff (for a while it will seem like they aren’t going to stiffen all the way but they will I promise)

Once the rabbit feet are completely stiff and you are ready to decorate, take a bell and bend the prongs up like in the photo. After you have bent all four prongs, do a test fit over the exposed part of the foot. Once you have found the position you like, take off the bell and apply strong glue like E6000 to the inside of each prong. Once glued back on the foot leave to dry for 24 hours. (I used hot glue but I would not recommend this, as it is not very strong for something like this)

If you have a dog please sit the rabbit feet where they cannot get them. Even after curing my dog found them and left me with 3 out of 17. He ate FOURTEEN of them. (I’m sure your dog is not as……special as mine) No dogs were harmed in the making of this Instructables.
