what can I do with old car keys?
I have a bunch of old car keys (probably like 100, I work at a car dealership!). I really don't want to just throw them away, so I thought I'd make something with them to give to my managers for Christmas. What can I make with them, most of them have a plastic/rubber top. I was thinking about some wind chimes- but would that work with the rubber at the top or should I have some type of pipe in the center of the chime for them to bang into? Or do you have any other ideas of how I can use them in gifts or how to make the chimes?

You could make a card using a key. I use a lot of rubber stamps to make cards and one I have is of an old fashioned key. I always use it for making a card that shows travel. By having your key on there, it would give the card dimension. If you don't find any ideas you like, you could always donate them to a craft group somewhere and they would certainly put the keys to good use.

I would make them all picture frames by simply gluing the keys to an old wooden frame (painted of course)...as far as making chimes i have linked what i could find as far as instructions....and also a mosaic...good luck!
