It might be a little early to be thinking about convention season, at least for some people. Not me. I’ve got shows to sell my handmade goodies at lined up starting in February, and I just added another small con for the end of April. Cons come in all shapes and sizes, but most of them have one thing in common: cheese-wheaty lanyards! Instead of settling for a shoestring with cheap lobster clasp, grab a scrap of your favorite fabric and make your own lanyard with my tutorial! It’s a super fast and easy project, and it’s perfect for busting through those fabric scraps you’ve been holding onto (they’ll come in handy someday!). What’s great about having your own lanyard is you can make it match your cosplay, and it’s washable! See? It’s not too early to be getting ready for convention season!
