Step 1
First of all, you will need to remove any grease marks from the keyring with a clean cloth or tissue. The use a fine water soluble pen to draw a simple motif or initial in the centre of the heart.
Step 2
Set the Dremel Engraver on speed 1. Lightweight and easy to handle, hold the engraver at a slight angle as if you’re drawing with a pencil. There’s no need to apply pressure, just rest the tip of the engraver gently in position and move it along the penned line at a steady and even pace. Remove any remaining pen marks with a soft cloth or tissue.
Step 3
Continue engraving as previously and go round the original engraving until you’ve achieved the required effect.
Step 4
You have now created the perfect gift and by adding your own little personal touch, your mum is sure to feel loved this Mother’s Day.
