✂️ Materials You’ll Need

  • Embroidery machine + USB stick with Labubu Face Snaptab embroidery design file

  • Stabilizer (tear-away or cut-away)

  • Vinyl or faux leather (front and back)

  • Key fob hardware (snap tab + snap button)

  • Snap press or snap pliers

  • Scissors and hole punch

💡 Professional Tip: Use marine vinyl or glitter vinyl for extra durability and a stylish shine.


🧵 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Hoop & Stabilize

  • Hoop your stabilizer tightly.

  • Float the vinyl piece on top of the hoop.

💡 Tip: Use a temporary spray adhesive to keep vinyl in place.


2. Stitch the Placement Line

  • Run the first stitch on your machine.

  • This will outline where the Labubu face will go.


3. Add the Design

  • Place your top piece of vinyl over the placement line.

  • Stitch out the full Labubu design 🐰.

💡 Tip: Slow down the machine speed slightly for small details (like teeth and eyes).


4. Backing & Final Outline

  • Place a piece of vinyl on the back of the hoop (for a neat finish).

  • Run the final outline stitch to secure front and back together.


5. Trim & Punch

  • Remove from the hoop.

  • Trim around the design, leaving a small edge outside the outline.

  • Punch a hole at the tab top.

💡 Tip: Use curved embroidery scissors for smooth edges.


6. Attach Snaps & Hardware

  • Add your snap button using snap pliers.

  • Insert the keyring hardware.
