Instructions

  1. Small batsignalneckstep1

    Cut the edge of the plastic coffee can lid off so the lid will lay flat on the table.

  2. Small batsignalneckstep2

    Lay the Bat Symbol stencil on top of the plastic coffee can lid. Use a pencil to trace the image onto the lid.

  3. Small batsignalneckstep3

    Use scissors to carefully cut out the Bat Signal.

  4. Small batsignalneckstep4

    Use a pencil to mark two dots close to the top part of the Bat Signal wings.

  5. Small batsignalneckstep5

    Heat up the end of a pin with a lighter, and carefully push the pin through each dot you made on the Bat Signal wings. You may have to heat up the pin several times.

  6. Small batsignalneckstep6

    Open the medium sized jump rings with pliers and insert into the two holes you just made with the hot pin. Leave the rings open for now.

  7. Small batsignalneckstep7

    Slip the 7 inch lengths of chain onto each of the open medium sized jump rings. Use pliers to close each of the rings.

  8. Small batsignalneckstep8

    Open the small jump rings and slip one side of the toggle clasp onto one of the small jump rings. Slip the small jump ring (with one side of the toggle clasp) onto one end of the chain and close the ring. Repeat with the other small jump ring and the other side of the toggle.
