" Personalized baby gifts with a heart "

Without a pacifier chain, parents would probably spend many more hours searching for the pacifier, because the popular pacifier chain is one of the first must-haves for newborns. The pacifier will never get lost and won't end up on dirty floors. The colorful chains also have a calming effect on newborns. Bright colors, interesting feel - a pacifier chain is always a suitable gift idea for parents-to-be. So it's all the nicer to get creative and make the dummy chain yourself.

Spoilt for choice - the first steps to a dummy chain

Soother chains are perfect when it comes to finding a personal gift for a newborn with as much individuality as possible. The pacifier chain is attached to the romper suit with a clip, which prevents the pacifier from getting lost. Admittedly, there are lots of cute and playful pacifier chains to buy. The child-friendly motifs not only delight parents, but also appeal to touched grandparents and godparents alike.

Nevertheless, homemade gifts have their very own value and often have a little story attached to them that can last longer than the gift itself. Nuggi chains - whether homemade or bought - are an important souvenir for many parents today, which they like to keep long after the "baby" has had its own little family. The thought of having created such a lasting object yourself is all the nicer.

Dare to do handicrafts

With the wide range of craft supplies there is no reason not to get artistic and simply make a very personalized pacifier chain. Even for beginners, the pacifier chain is an easy crafting exercise that is quick to make and great fun. Thanks to the huge selection of high-quality craft accessories, you will be surprised how creative making dummy chains can be.

Craft afternoons with the whole family promise double the fun. The craft materials for making a necklace are so varied that even older children will be happy to join in and make a bracelet or key ring for themselves or their friends. Presenting the necklace to the proud parents as a gift is the highlight of the joint "work".

For parents who make things for their own children, this is of course the moment when the pacifier chain is clipped onto the baby bodysuit and the little one is happily sucking on the pacifier.

The world of chain links is colorful and diverse

There is a wide choice and every type of theme is possible for a chain. Should your pacifier chain be about the plants and animals of the forest or about football? There are no limits to the imagination.

Of course, the child's own name or birthday date are also very popular. Beads strung letter by letter or number by number not only make a very personal gift, but also a highly individual one.

So get inspired before you order and order a wide variety of beads made from different materials such as wood or silicone. Of course, you should make sure that all craft supplies for baby dummy chains are suitable. A good indicator of this is the DIN-EN 71-3 standard for safe children's toys.

Make your own pacifier chain - step by step

With a little skill, it takes just 15 - 20 minutes to make.

Once the beads, cords, wooden rings and half-rings, bells etc. have arrived, you can finally get started. Before you get started, however, you should always remember that the necklace should be a maximum of 22 centimetres long to prevent it from wrapping around the child's neck.

First the clip - everything else is ready

Once the string is the right length, lay out the pieces in the desired order in which they will be threaded onto the string.

With the motif clip in one hand, the first step is to pull the threading cord through the eyelet of the clip and close it with a tight double knot. After an initial tear test, cut off the protruding end of the double knot. Weld the remaining cord with a lighter as well as the other end of the threading cord.

Now it's time to thread

Now thread on one of the two safety beads with the larger hole facing the clip. Then add the selected motif beads and silicone beads piece by piece.

A wooden bead between the letters creates a little more harmony, bells are also ideal here. Your imagination is in demand! Try out beforehand which combination you like best!

The last bead is followed by another knot. Make a loop that should be as big as the clip. This is the best way to make the loop: double the cord, squeeze the loop together and wrap it around your index finger, pass the end of the loop on the pacifier through the part around your index finger. Pull tight, done.

Finishing your own dummy chain

Then cut the end of the cord down to a few millimetres and weld the ends together again. Thread the second safety bead over the loop and tighten it. Slide the loop over the rear ring slot so that it forms a tight knot around the silicone ring when tightened.

Perform another tear test and you've done it: your personalized pacifier chain is finished! Congratulations! You will probably now want to make more or design another pacifier chain!
