What to do with theses keys?

[ashleen]

Gypsy got me digging for my keys. Here's some. I know there are more around here, but........where?
Keep meaning to make something out of them, or display them somehow...

The only ones found while metal detecting are the 9 by the butterfinger.

I'm open to any ideas...

shadow box

Holy crap...what a nice bunch of skeleton keys!! Definitely like the idea of a shadow box. Or a picture frame without the glass in it. Or glued onto the outside of a metal box, making it your very own special treasure box.

Ashleen those are great....I am trying to get as many as possible and then I am going to glue them all over one of my doors....They are so fun to collect.....I put a bowl of them in the middle of the table and people like looking at them when they visit...They would look really nice in a display case or a glass top coffee table.....

You could hang them from individual strings and make a wind chime...

Ash,

idea :P

buy yourself some brass wire. Make a
tree out of it. Roots to act as a stand,
trunk goes up, branches come out.

Hang the keys on the tree, sort of like a
christmas tree but a regular tree.

As you get more keys, just add more branches;
another row of wire, from root up the tree and
out as branches.

Excellent Idea, if I must say so myself

have a good un............

They used to be my bathroom curtain! lol I just tied them to ribbons of graduating lengths and hung them from the curtain rod like a swag. I LOVED it, but the old man thought it was 'goofy'. And the cat was always at 'em!
Gypsy, I have a bowl of rocks on my table! lol semi-precious and 'prescious only to me'.
Maybe I'll try everyone's ideas, and see which comes out best
Sherm...I have plenty of brass, copper and silver wire...hmm...
