-

Start of with a keyboard key and a ring base that will fit the key nicely.
-

The key will normally have a large bit of plastic on the bottom. Break this off.
-

The best way to do it is by twisting it with pliers until it breaks off. Be careful not to break the actual key.
-

Cover the base with glue.
-

Stick the key on to the ring base. Easy.

Nice - I got a couple of old keyboards that I was going to give to charity - I think I might just pull of the keys off now and try making some rings instead. Great recycling idea.
