Supplies needed:
- Suede Leather
- Round metal pacifier clip
- Scissors
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Gather your supplies. Cut 2 lengths of cording about 3’ in length each.
2. Take one strand and fold in half. Shape a loop, making it about 1.5-2” in length. Keep in mind that this end will loop onto a pacifier or teether.
3. Hold your first folded piece of cord and line up your cording to lay flat. Take your second piece of cording and at the halfway point, lay it behind the first folded cord.
4. The four strands will be what you use to make your braid. Take your far right piece of cord, fold it across and place it in between the far left cord and the middle two strands.
5. Holding that folded cord in place, take your far left strand and fold it over just one cord.
6. Grab your far right cord, fold it across the two cords beside it, then grab your far left strand and fold it over just one cord.
7. Repeat this braid until your pacifier clip is as long as you prefer it.
8. When you have a length you’re happy with, use both the far left and far right cord and tie a simple knot. You can double knot this if you like. Trim the excess cord from this knot.
9. You should still have two cords coming down through the knot you just made. Feed those cords onto your clip.
10. Bring your two sides up from the back side of your clip and tie a single knot on TOP of your braid.
11. Flip your braid over to the back side, bring your pieces across and tie another knot on the BACK side of your pacifier clip. Repeat tying knots on either side of your pacifier clip two more times for a total of 4 knots.
12. Trim the excess cording and you’re done!
You can make so many color variations on this delicate looking pacifier clip! Change up your cording color, pick two colours, maybe even pop a few wood beads in the design!

Hi Kathy!
Thanks so much for your question! You can definitely attach a teether to a pacifier clip! Xo
Do you think I could attach a teether to a pacifier clip? We are trying to wean the pacifier, but daycare says it’s the only thing that keeps our 18 month old from biting the other kids.
