Abstract

A key fob includes at least one dome (20) with a display surface (22) and a flange (26) secured in a fob (14). The fob (14) is sewn in a pattern around or through the flange (26) or openings (30 a-d) therethrough. The fob may also be formed by placing display domes (40, 40') within an outer rim (60) and sealing the combination within a u-shaped ring (74). Designs and slogans may be placed on the display surfaces. The fob may then be attached to a key ring (10) using a clip (144) configured to accommodate crimping. The clip attachment allows the fob to rotate freely around the key ring (10).
