Old Keys Anew

Yes...  ANOTHER Pinterest idea - - here's the picture I found & pinned:

How cute is that?  It wasn't exactly the look I was going for, but the general idea is too cute to ignore.  I had a booth at the flea market this past weekend and wandered around shopping through other people junk.  O what fun!!  I DID find a bucket of old keys (they aren't nearly as fancy as the ones on Pinterest but...)  I knew I HAD to buy them.  I got 5 of them.

My little town, which I love, has lots and lots of antique stores downtown and I just happen to work downtown and have an hour for lunch.  One venture the other day landed me in the 1/2 price basement of the Memories antique store.  For 2 cute wooden frames, descent size - $5 each.  I paid $5 for both.  Sweet!

Here's the final product after a day of thinking and some more pretty scrapbook paper that I found a use for. Again, it matches our colors and I am very happy with how it turned out.  Tell me what you think!!



Do you love it like I do??  
(The green 'ribbon' I hung it by was this silly little belt on a sweater I bought.  I don't like belts... makes my tubby tummy too obvious.  lol.  So this is a MUCH better use for it.)
