How about threading them all up to create a windchime?

I gave my husband an old key once and placed it onto a card that said “The Key To My Heart”

But I guess you have a 100 keys..lol

How about decorating around a mirror and grouting them into the frame…

Good Luck

The weight may set you thinking.. anything that requires a weight to hold it down.. cnat think of anything except sewing in hems of heavy long curtains….but might set you off on another tack/ oops sorry.. unconcious pun there!
Rosie:)

Like you said about weights, they are excellent for keeping balloons down. Just tie the balloons to the keys. You can also give them to kids 4 and up to play with. Any younger, and they might choke on them.

You could make a bunch of rattles for all the babies in your family. So cute! Babies love keys!!! Group them on rings in bunches so there will be no choking danger and run them through the dishwasher to remove grease and dirt. Make sure the keys are firmly held in the rings for safety.

Only other suggestion, Modern Art?

They can be used to make tablecloth weights when using a cloth outside.

I use old house keys as symbols in a lesson I teach in a university course. I need several hundred of them. May I have yours?

YRoss, you can have a whole bunch of office keys if they are any good to you

Where do you want keys sent? I have some I;d like to donate.

keys are mostly made of brass and could be given to a local scrap metal dealer, commercial value of scrap metal is around $ .02 each key

I’m sure you have more than enough now, but just in case…. can you use more keys?

Kay,
Do you still have those keys. I teach a class for the handicap and we decorate a tree in CityPark, New Orleans every year. I could use some keys for the decoration we will be doing. If you or anyone who has some old keys, any kind, that would be great.

Yes, I will send keys too! please let me know where to send…..

Heather,
I need some keys for a project I’m doing with the handicap program of my recreation department. Please let me know if you have any more keys. My email is brfig@cox.net. Any kind of keys will do. Thanks

I have some keys too, do you still need them? If so,let me know and I’ll post them.

Heather

Saw your comment on line about used keys. Did you find out where to send them?

thanks,

Wayne

I have some keys. Where would I take or send them?

Ros

I have old keys too…did you find out where to send them or who wants them?

Wayne

I have some, too. Where would I send them?

Do you still need keys? Feb 08

i once saw a lady on the news who was being car jacked as she entered her car, she threw some fake keys far from the car, and when the robber went for them, she used the real ones to take off… but that could be very dangerous.

good self defense weapon for women, tie a good sized full ring to a strap, and carry when you’re alone.

I’ve seen house keys used in crafts as sort of a display of different shapes, sometimes painted etc. I don’t know why the keys couldn’t be taken to the metal recyclers as many are brass or steel.

If you have kids, put them on a key ring and give them to your kids for their “pretend” play.

Hello everyone from above,

Any more keys that you’re looking to get rid of?

We’re some actors looking for lots and lots of keys for our next fringe theatre production. We’d be happy to pick up the keys wherever is convenient for you. We’re all London (UK) based, but would be willing to travel out of London for a really big bunch of keys.

Please email me directly at: emmalinda@hotmail.com.

Many thanks,
Emma

I found a new site. Its called www.KeysfforKindness.com and it helps the M.S. society. They recycle the keys and donate money to the L.I. chapter.

these guys are great for poking into an attackers eyes.if you have small ones they can be used as charms for a bracelet. you can also use a small lock and key for a key to my heart setr .Put the lock on one necklace the key on your mates with a love note.

Does anyone need more keys? We just cleaned out our garage and have some we’d love to have someone use. Please let us know. Thank-you!
