There are "key" ideas for a wedding fashion. From a beautiful key will be an exquisite boutonniere for the groom.

New Year decoration

Decor professionals were able to see in ordinary keys even! For example, these are the original. They can be perfectly decorated with the door of the house, if the soul is not lying to (like me, for example).

Or adapt them to decorate the Christmas tree! The easiest option is to just bind a bright ribbon. And if you want something more interesting, take brushes and paints and turn the key to Santa Claus or a funny funny snowman.

You can paint them "under gold" and glue a couple of small toys (and at least from the kinder surprise).

Or make such adorable dragonflies. Think difficult? Not at all. We take a tracker, cellophane (not soft), cigarette paper - what I want to see as striking wings, or what is in stock) accommodation draw the usual gel handle. When the drawing is dry, faming it, then stroke the warm iron (not hot, otherwise the paper will remain, and cellophan and melts at all) to give the naturalness of the wings, they are not perfectly smooth. Cut and glue to key. All, the author's christmas decoration is ready)

Which ideas seemed to you worth?

If you like to find unusual ideas of using ordinary things, this selection will surely be by the way.

Here, in fact, it happened - I embodied my idea. Panel "Old keys" - and the frame was made exclusively for them, and where else should it be so old and uneven places?

As I expected, after completing the framework, the process of the process. I could not decompose the keys so that I would like. About 15 options, after I discarded them and examined on the monitor (by the way, a wonderful way from the "covered" look) was rejected. And I have already completed with the fact that the next "started and not finished" will go to the shelf, but today finally happened! Eureka! I liked the composition and then I decided not to postpone the case in a long box.

So, the frame was made, and I needed a "drying" background for keys. After inspecting the hamster stocks, burlap was discovered, though on some incomprehensible synthetic substrate (it was a bag for some bottles of an alcoholic store, and it was waiting for his fate of 10 years, no less). Well, the cardboard for the base is where without it.

The first thing cut off the cardboard under the size of the frame. Further, promoting Cardboard PVA, told the rolling rollane (as well, that it was based on, and the glue would not drive anywhere).

After the "rolling", the cardboard has increased in size, and therefore I had to cut it again. What you need!

Day for drying - what would be sure. I got even more than a day - due to creative throwing. But here are the keys are decomposed - we definitely do the photo that then it would not be confused which key where.

True, non-other-rhy-rhyme torping and it did not help - only when everything was done and I sat down to process photos, I noticed that one of the central keys was to be at a distance. And the composition then looks much better. Eh! If it is very nervous - remake.

Decuting the keys, a pencil outlining fasteners. And I remove the keys to the side, laying out them as they should be on the panel - again, just to facilitate the process.

Needle make small holes on scheduled points. Here I, by the way, I realized that the wire would bloom Cardboard and I need a backward backward. From what was at hand - PLAID screen sheets, and one of them and went into business. It was possible to take a plastic durable file, but I didn't have it, but I could not wait until the evening - you understand! Duplicate holes on plastic and begin to attach keys.

It is better to take a wire better, it is more convenient than with a short one. But it looks like an exhaust

After each key, I made a small nodule - for strength. But neatly - wire with strong bending-tightening breaks. Pliers I dragged the wire, whatever she would be strained. (Let it not be embarrassed by 3 holes on a plastic substrate, I was wrong. We need only one, exactly coinciding with the point of attachment.)

Spinning-hiding all the ends, and everything is actually.

Next, I sampled bilateral scotchpiece and closed all the unearthly beauty with a beautiful piece of paper. Now it is necessary to fix the panel inside the frame (optimally special. The stapler for targeting, as in the bagent workshops. But it does not have it, but there is a hammer and brackets from the stapler mentioned). How will the fastening be done to hang a panel on the wall - I will decide in the evening, and it is already the little things. The main thing is completed.

PS. I thought here, and suddenly someone wants to make the same thing, but he will not have a cardboard, and MDF, or a thin chipboard. Then the sequence changes. First, it will be necessary to schedule the locations of the keys and a thin drill (one) to drill holes. After that stick to the burlap. Well, further - fix the keys in the described method, or any other - at your discretion.
