What can I do with old keys?

Question

What can I make out of old keys?

Ranger · Answer

Many things you can do:  paint (gold, brass, copper, black etc) and hang off a circle - like the old chatalaines - and hang by a door, or make into a chime ornament for the back or front door.  Frame them with a burlap background and painted frame.  Best of all, just type in 'keys' in Pinterest and you will be presented with 100's of ideas and options.  Good luck.  Would be nice to see the finished product.

Take them to a locksmith so they can be recycled.

Old keys can be used in jewelry...there are lots of creative bracelets, necklaces, even earrings...made with keys. Also, repurposing bottles...check on Pinterest for bottles blinged up with rhinestones, pearls, lace and keys. They are also great used in wind chimes...again...check on Pinterest and you will see old keys used to add weight to the end of a strand of colorful Lucite beads. Get creative and you will find plenty of ways to make use of your treasure trove of old keys. Have fun!
