# Making social media handle keychains with the Social Keychain Generator

> follow-me tags with your handle, platform logo, and call to action

Part business card, part keychain. Choose a **Social Network** (Instagram, Facebook, email, website, Wi-Fi, link, or search), type your **Username** and a short **Call to Action**, and the generator lays out a tag with the platform logo, your handle, and a hanger hole. The SVG exports as a frame-plus-logo layer and a backplate layer, so a two-color stack looks store-bought. Makers hang these on market stalls, product packaging, and their own keys.

## What you need

- **Laser cutting:** 3 mm [acrylic](https://yxecreations.com/pages/acrylic-sheets) in two contrasting colors, or [laser-grade plywood](https://yxecreations.com/collections/laser-grade-plywood) with an engraved face
- **Assembly:** [3M 467/468 tape](https://yxecreations.com/collections/3m-tape) for clean acrylic-to-acrylic bonding
- **Hardware:** [keychain snap clips](https://yxecreations.com/products/keychain-snap-clips-multiple-colours) or ball chains for packaging tags

## Step 1 - Pick the platform and write the text



Select the network so the right logo loads, then enter your **Username** exactly as people should type it. Keep the **Call to Action** short - Follow us, Scan me, Find us at - long phrases shrink the handle text.

## Step 2 - Size and style



- Pick **Small**, **Medium**, or **Large** - medium suits keys, large reads from a market table.
- Adjust **Border Width** for the frame and **Hole Size** for your ring or chain.
- Tune the **Social Icon Size** slider so the logo balances the text instead of crowding it.
- Pick a clean, heavy font; handles full of underscores and dots need all the stroke width they can get.

## Step 3 - Export the SVG



Download the **SVG**. The frame-with-logo layer and the backplate come out as separate paths so you can assign different colors or operations in your laser software.

## Laser Cutting

### Laser cutting



1. Cut the backplate from your accent color and the frame + logo layer from the main color.
2. Alternatively, single-layer it: cut the outline once and raster-engrave the logo and text on plywood or two-tone acrylic.
3. Bond the layers with 3M tape applied before cutting the top sheet - cutting through pre-applied tape gives perfectly matched adhesive.
4. Add a snap clip, or a ball chain if these are hanging on product bags.

## Make it yours

- Make a Wi-Fi version for your guest room or cafe with the network name as the handle.
- Batch 50 with your shop handle and drop one in every order as free marketing that people keep.
- Use brand colors: white logo layer on the platform's signature color reads instantly.
- Make a matched set - Instagram, website, email - and hang all three on your market banner.
- Engrave the back with a discount code so the keychain doubles as a coupon.
- Cut a large version as a counter sign with the hole used for display cord instead of keys.
