If you have lots of similar keys and you always seem to be searching for the key you need, here is a potentially great solution for you. Rather than buying those bulky plastic key covers that break, get dirty once they are used for a while, and clunk up your key chain, spend NO money and use something you probably already have in your house - nail polish! You could also use regular paint as well (although it might not adhere as well and chip/peel off faster). What I love most about this is you can colour code your keys. Front door red - use red paint! Shed brown - use brown paint! Handy Tip: Make sure you let each coat (if you do more than one) dry fully before recoating/turning over. Also, make sure the surface you're using to paint on is clean and dust-free or else you'll have dust chunks stuck into your finished key colouring. I MAY not have let each coat dry completely and put the keys back on my key chain before they were fully dry (hence the slight indents/smudges you see in the picture to the right) - oops. You could even get fancy and use sparkly nail polish, or paint swirls, faces, designs onto the keys. There are so many possibilities, the sky is the limit! |
