Hi! I've been making some key chains and bookmarks lately and was wondering if anyone adds any material to the back of their designs when they're done so that they're a bit more sturdy and keep their shape? I was thinking about felt just to hide the backs of my alphas but if there's anything that's more solid plz recommend! Thanks 😄

Sometimes if you want something a little more natural you can cover the back of the alpha in nail polish! Hope this helps.

Sometimes when I make alpha bracelets for other people, I'll cover the backs with non-fraying fabric that I've cut to the right size. I just use fabric glue to attach it.

I've heard that some people use leather or more substantial materials like that, which I've never tried but it looks cool. I think that the felt you mentioned will work just fine, as any material you add to the back will help the bracelet keep its shape, especially if you glue it.

Hope this helped! ❤️
