let’s make a pokémon mini ring tin!
*please excuse my chipped nails, idk how to girl.*
supplies you’ll need
- foam rollers - i purchased the flexible leave in kind from dollar tree
- scrap fabric
- hot glue gun
- scissors
- pokémon mini tin
• first i removed the ends of the rollers and the wire from the inside.
• next i folded the roller in half and cut in half - that makes the perfect length.
• i used the tin to cut a strip the width of the tin, i went about 3 tins in length since i was wrapping the fabric.
• next i applied a line of glue, and glued the edge of the fabric, then wrapped the fabric cutting when the fabric met the already glued end and added another strip of glue.
• i repeated this 5 more times because each tin holds 6 roller halves.
• once the roller halves are glued i just simply stuffed them in the tin - i guess you could glue them down, but they hold pretty securely.
ta da! you made your self a travel ring holder! comment pictures if you made/have already made one! i love them because my field of work requires my rings be removed often and this is an easy way to keep up with them!
If you love crafts and Pokémon, this DIY mini ring tin is a fun and practical project to try. Using foam rollers and scrap fabric not only makes this project affordable but also customizable. I found that selecting flexible foam rollers from a dollar store works best—they’re easy to cut and shape to fit snugly inside the small tin. A tip for wrapping the foam with fabric: cut your fabric strips a bit longer than needed to comfortably wrap around the foam. Using a hot glue gun makes the fabric secure but be cautious about the glue's temperature to avoid burns. Also, when stuffing the wrapped foam pieces into the tin, place them tightly so they don’t shift around, which helps keep your rings secure during travel. This travel ring holder is especially handy if, like me, you often remove rings for work or outdoor activities. It keeps your jewelry organized and prevents losing or damaging your rings. Plus, the Pokémon mini tin adds a nostalgic and personalized touch to something usually plain. Another idea is to decorate the outside of the tin with stickers or paint to match your style. You could even create separate sections inside with additional foam or fabric dividers if you have multiple rings or small jewelry pieces. Overall, this project is quick, cost-effective, and results in a personalized, portable jewelry organizer. It’s great for anyone who wants both function and a bit of fandom in their daily carry items.
such a fun craft! made a fully flat version myself a while ago, using felt and velvet, so it could hold anything. i’ll admit it’s not the easiest thing to make neat, but it was a good time nonetheless. love how yours came out, i want to make a togepi one next!
