FAQs

Can I try this as my first punch needle project?

The printed outline gives you a design to follow, with a colour guide and tutorial QR card included. Start with the tutorial, take your time with the first stitches, and work through one colour at a time.

Am I buying a finished charm?

This is a DIY kit. You make one cat in your chosen design, then add the backing, face, decorations and keyring.

How big is the finished charm?

Around 9 × 10 cm, excluding the keyring. The four designs are similar in size, with slight variations from handmaking.

How do I access the tutorial?

Scan the QR card inside your kit to open the tutorial. Keep the printed colour guide beside you as you work. Need help with your card? Email support@openclip.com.au.

How long does it take?

It depends on your experience and pace. Make it in one sitting or enjoy it over a few sessions — follow the tutorial for each stage, including the finishing details.

Can I give it as a gift?

Yes — each design comes as an individually boxed DIY kit. Give the making experience to a craft-loving friend, or finish the charm yourself and gift something made by you.

Can I mix different designs in my order?

Yes. Add each design to your bag separately. Mix and match any three eligible items to save 10%; mini fuse bead kits are excluded from this offer.
