OK so I have a press mold which I am going to use for the fimo, what I really to know I guess is, once I have my fimo shape, what do I need to stick in it to make a loop which can attach to a keyring?

I have seen some snake keyrings which are like this so are there some fixings which are like a spike on one end (to go in the fimo) and a ring at the other, to attach to the jump on the snake chain?

I've had a look on the net but there aren't any tutorials I can find, just a load of people selling their fimo keyrings!

you'll need to make the loop by making a hole, at the hanging end in your fimo shape -

I find something like a cocktail stick or tooth pick, or even a darning needle works fine - jiggle it around a bit to make a smooth round hole & make the hole slightly bigger than you want it to allow for it to expand slightly whilst "cooking"

when baked, slot a ring into the hole, & attach your key fob to the ring

hope thats what you meant?

Aha yes, OK. Yeah that's what I meant more or less, but your way is better :)
