At the back of the two leaves, form a small loop with the yarn and then reinsert the needle and weave up the center of the other leaf. Weave back down the leaf to the center, and create a second loop of the same size on top of the first.  Use the needle and yarn to wrap around the 2 loops until they are completely covered, and secure the yarn to finish.  
  • Slip the loop you created over the chain on the Daisy charm and pull it downward toward the daisy.

How to Attach Your Charm to Your Bag

You can easily attach your charm to your handbag or luggage. Just slip the crochet chain around your bag’s handle or a hook. Then pull it up and over the double leaf to secure.

Or you can attach it with a key ring or an O-ring.

FAQ

First the hidden pocket can hold money or other items you’d like at your fingertips along with your keys. However, if you don’t want the hidden pocket, you can still add the cute daisy charm to your handbag. You will only need one of the daisy centers.

I made mine opening for the pocket as tight as possible to still allow the AirTag to slip in and out. However, if you are concerned, I recommend adding a velco dot to hold the opening securely closed.
