Unusual do-it-yourself key holders. How to make a key holder with your own hands. From the whole thread

Wall key holder with your own hands... The hallway also requires decoration. Excellent decorative element This room can become a wall-mounted key holder with your own hands. It’s not difficult to make, and the materials for a wall-mounted key holder can be found in any home. We suggest making a key holder imitating a brick wall.

DIY wall key holder: step-by-step master class with photos

So, a master class on making a key holder for the wall requires the following materials:

1. Thick cardboard;
2. Beautiful Foto or picture;
3. A small piece of wallpaper (optional);
4. White paper napkins. You can take the bottom layer from multi-layered colored table napkins;
5. PVA glue;
6. Acrylic and watercolor paints;
7. Acrylic glossy clear varnish;
8. Four small nails (for attaching a wall key holder with your own hands) and office nails as a hanger for the keys themselves);
9. Brushes, scissors, pencil, ruler.

So, how to make a key holder with your own hands.

Cut out a rectangle from thick cardboard. Its dimensions coincide with the dimensions of the finished product.

Our cardboard was not very attractive back side, so we decided to cover it with wallpaper. From a piece of wallpaper, cut out a rectangle that is larger than the main cardboard by a centimeter on each side. We paste it over the cardboard.

Now let's decide on the picture. We found a photo of Edinburgh in a magazine.

Cut it out.

We cut many small pieces from cardboard. These are future building blocks.

Glue a picture to the center of the base and begin to cover it with bricks. Bricks can be glued either with PVA or with a regular glue stick. The bricks must have gaps between each other. The bricks should be uneven and laid with a shift (i.e., the way a real brick wall is laid).

We fill all the space around the picture with bricks.
The bricks extend slightly into the picture, and in some places, on the contrary, they do not reach it.
We take PVA and a brush and begin to generously cover the bricks with glue.

Cover the smeared area with a napkin and brush over the napkin with a dry brush. Use the back of the brush to draw gaps.

So we gradually cover all the bricks with a napkin.
We cut the edges of the napkin along the outer perimeter and coat it with glue so that they stick to the base.
Now let’s coat the entire surface with glue again.
This is necessary for the product to become durable.
Now our brickwork needs to dry. This will take at least 12 hours. This is what the product will look like after 12 hours.
The cardboard became a little harder.
Let's start painting the bricks. First, let's paint only the bricks terracotta color.
We used regular watercolors for children's creativity. I just happened to be there desired color, so there was no need to mix and invent anything. We try not to make the watercolor very liquid. Those. Lightly moisten the brush with water and dip it into the paint.
The paint will dry very quickly. Now let's draw the jointing. For this we used gold acrylic paint. We draw only the seams between the bricks. To prevent the bricks from being monochromatic, brush them with gold paint and smear them with a sponge.

Using the same gold paint, we paint over the free space around the picture. Leave until completely dry.
Acrylic paint dries very quickly, so after about 15 minutes the product can be varnished. Using a clean wide brush, apply acrylic varnish to the entire surface (including the picture).
The varnish will not only give the key holder a shine, but will further protect the paint from fading and contamination.

And this is how a hand-made wall key holder will look on the wall.
We nailed the key holder to the wall with small nails. They took a clerical nail and painted it gold. They let it dry and hammered it into the key holder.
The heads of the nails that were used to nail the product to the wall were also painted gold.

Of course, a key hanger can be made from different materials: ceramics and metal can be decorated using decoupage technique or painted. You can make a cardboard key holder using the scrapbooking technique. We conceived a hanger that would be reminiscent of travel and at the same time be an extraordinary and functional frame. To make a key holder we used a wooden board and our favorite photograph.

WHAT DO YOU NEED?

• hooks 4 pcs.
• watercolor paints

Watercolor paints We used it exclusively in a small craft intended for use at home. It is more correct to age wood using stains.

Description: I present an autumn decorative key holder made using the decoupage technique.

Step-by-step process for making a key holder

1. Materials and tools: a board, a napkin with a suitable image, PVA glue, sandpaper, scissors, brushes.

2. Prepare the surface. Sanding the board sandpaper, cover with acrylic primer. Choose a napkin with a suitable motif.

3. Cut out a piece of napkin to the size of the board.

4. Remove the extra 2 layers of napkin and glue it to the surface using PVA glue (decoupage technique).

5. After the glue has dried, apply putty to the tree crown using a palette knife to add volume to the leaves. Instead of putty, you can use structural paste.

6. From another napkin, cut out the same motif with the image of a crown and glue it, covering the applied volume with PVA glue.

7. Cover the foliage, additionally adding volume, with modeling gel paste.

8. After drying, the paste becomes transparent.

9. We glue gold leaf to the ends of the future key holder, then we fix the image with 1-2 layers of acrylic varnish.

All that remains is to attach the hooks and use them. Now the keys will always be in their place!

Very original key holders are made from an ordinary frame in which the keys act as a picture. Of course, the frame should be decorated with carvings with twisted elements, possibly with gilding. In general, the frame should be a work of art in itself.

How to make a key holder from a branch?

A very unusual decorative key holder will be made from an ordinary piece of driftwood or a thick branch. Don't rush to laugh. This beauty might look like this:

The costs for such a key holder are minimal, the material is environmentally friendly, and fun bright design will cheer you up before leaving for work. True, such a key holder will only look good in a well-lit room.

Using the example of a key holder, you will see how you can make an imitation brickwork from cardboard. Then your imagination will tell you what other household items can be decorated with the same technique.

For the key holder you will need:

Thick cardboard (from any box or crate).
Napkins or toilet paper- they should be dense (if they are generously smeared with glue, they will not turn into “porridge”).
PVA glue.
Acrylic paints and varnish.

As a basis ( back wall) for the key holder that we will decorate with bricks, it is better to take a rectangle made of fiberboard or plywood - hooks and loops will be attached to this base.

We cut out rectangles-bricks of approximately the same size from cardboard and glue them onto the base, leaving gaps between them.

So we seal the entire surface required according to the plan. In our example, a sign with an inscription is glued to the center of the key holder, and on the top panel there is a picture (work using the decoupage technique).

Leave to dry.

We paint the dried composition with red-brown paints. Brick coloring looks great in combination with bronze, silver or gold paints (first we paint the seams between the bricks with one of these paints, then we paint the bricks, leaving a shine between them).

When the paint has dried, you can go over the bricks with the same bronze or golden paint with a dry brush (dip the brush into bronze, smear the paint from the brush on unnecessary paper until it becomes almost dry, and only now brush it over the bricks) in one direction.

Cover with clear acrylic varnish (it is better to use matte varnish).

We attach metal accessories and the key holder is ready. If you want, hang it for yourself, or give it to someone.

Today, dear needlewomen, I will tell you how I made such a key holder.

I’ll tell you today, but to do it, taking into account the drying of paints and varnishes, the purchase of all sorts of little things like screws and ribbons, will take three days, no less, so if there are those who want to repeat my glorious feat, get ready right away, it’s not a quick task.
I’ve wanted a key holder for a long time; it’s a very useful thing in the household. Otherwise, all sorts of keys are lying around everywhere. Especially those that are not used every day. For example, the key to the barn was irretrievably lost over the winter, and the lock had to be changed. I also lost the key to the window, and I can’t wash it from the inside, and it’s a shame to break the glass. Of course, I covered the window with curtains, but it’s still a shame.
Buying a key holder is a toad - and the thing is not cheap, and there is a whole collection of unused napkins in the chest of drawers. All we need is a piece of plywood and a jigsaw, preferably an electric one. Lyudochka 4erepawka found both of these things and she kindly provided me with this blank:

In addition to the blank, we will need:
1. Some kind of primer for wood;
2. Acrylic paints;
3. If we want to make cracks, use craquelure products;
4. Napkins (decoupage cards, printouts with designs - whatever you like best);
5. PVA glue (or special glue for decoupage);
6. Glue such as "Moment", "Super gel glue" or glue gun(i.e. something very, very strong)
7. The brushes are different;
8. For gratings - polymer clay (you can take wooden blanks, ready-made wicker gratings, who knows how - you can, for example, make a grating from newspaper tubes - very cheap material; in general, there are a lot of options; I took it polymer clay because there was nothing suitable on the farm, and somehow I didn’t immediately think about newspaper tubes);
9. Ribbons, needles, threads, scissors.
10. Hooks, loop, screws, screwdriver.
11. Patience. Just a lot of patience.

So, let's begin. We take our blank and the first thing we do is prime it. I used this tool:

There is no need to buy such things specially, they are expensive. You can use, for example, Aquastop. We prime on both sides to extend the life of our future key holder.
Here is the blank after priming:

Next, the idea was this: the key holder should be “antique”, so I chose a delicate pattern with lilies and decided to make a craquelure. The two-component one hasn’t worked for me yet and, in order not to risk it, I decided to use the one-component one.
For the bottom layer I used this acrylic enamel:

Attention! It is better not to use such enamel. It has very low adhesion; varnishes and other paints adhere very poorly to it. I still have it after painting the foam plastic ceiling skirting boards(it’s ideal for these purposes), but it needs to be used somewhere.
Therefore, this is how we paint the bottom layer acrylic paint the color our cracks will be.
After complete drying (for me, in accordance with the instructions for the enamel, this is 24 hours, for artistic paints much less) apply craquelure varnish, I used this one:

Wait for it to dry to touch (if you overdry, you won’t get cracks)
Next we apply white acrylic paint. Here's the result:

Next, take a napkin and cut out the motif (I cut it off).

The drawing on my napkin is very delicate shades, after removing the two lower layers of the napkin, it practically ceased to be visible. When I applied the napkin to the key holder, it turned out that in places where there were cracks (large cracks) the motif was completely invisible. Therefore, I painted the parts where the flower should be with white paint. Accordingly, the layer turned out to be uneven, despite sanding the newly applied paint. There were two ways out: either remove all the layers and start the work again (make the cracks smaller and more gentle), or try to turn the disadvantage into an advantage. I chose the second option. Two circumstances played a role here: 1) the overwhelming number of “jambs” of handicraft work can be somehow played up and pretended that this is how it was intended; 2) I am a naturally lazy creature and if it is possible to neglect something in order to achieve a result as quickly as possible without loss of quality, I will definitely neglect this “something”. I found the following solution: by applying thin-thin layer white paint in the place where the napkin would be, and without waiting for it to dry completely, I blotted the undried paint with a paper napkin (applied it, pressing it, and immediately removed it). The result was unevenness and roughness, which, according to my expectations, should have enhanced the effect of paint cracked with time.

All. All you have to do is wait for it to dry completely - and you can glue the napkin. I really like the method of gluing a napkin with water: apply the napkin, wet it slightly in the center, if something is uneven, take it by the dry edges, lift it a little and lay the napkin again. And so little by little, very carefully, from the center to the edges. Next, until the napkin is dry, I apply something like this on top of it: special glue for decoupage:

I love it because it is not necessary to apply it to the workpiece itself or to inner part motive - you can simply apply it on top of a napkin and everything will stick wonderfully. Next to the photo is the brush I use when gluing motifs - it is very convenient for these purposes.
Here's the result:

Cover the top required quantity layers of finishing varnish. Two were enough for me.
While the varnish is drying, you can work on the grate. I used polymer clay "Bebik", bought half a pack, it was enough.

I just rolled and cut sausages the right size and quantities, without particularly caring that they be perfect shape. The main thing for me was - perfect length. I had to suffer a little with the future “roof”; it was very difficult to try it on the blank; the “roof” kept trying to bend or stretch out in length. But perseverance won - she managed.

Finished parts I planned to paint it with the same bronze enamel that I used for the cracks (that’s why I used white polymer clay), but fate decreed otherwise.

Either this is due to my antediluvian oven, which can keep the temperature at least 180 degrees, or a saucepan with plastic handles, accidentally forgotten in the oven, but after baking the parts turned out to be this interesting color:

To be honest, I was very happy about this fact: I liked the color, and the problem with painting parts disappeared.
Then everything is simple. We apply it, try it on, take a glue gun and assemble our puzzle. Voila:
Next, take the ribbon for the leaves:

We cut off the edges and very, very carefully secure them with a lighter (we bring the flame from afar, slowly and carefully), as a result you can get very nice curves at the ends:

Then all this can be put on glue. However, I decided that it would be better if the flowers were removable and could be easily washed.
I sewed the buds to the leaves not in the middle, but like this:

The long edge is left for tying to the grille.
All. The key holder is ready. Hooray!

How often, leaving the house, standing literally on the threshold, did you suddenly realize that the keys to the apartment, country house Or is there no garage in sight? They are nowhere to be found - not in your pockets, not on the table, not in the chest of drawers! You can avoid this situation if you give them their own special place. They can serve as a wall-mounted key holder, which you can easily make yourself from scrap materials. You can, of course, just hammer three nails into the wall and leave it at that, but you must admit that a beautiful original thing will look much better and more aesthetically pleasing in the hallway!

Wall key holders: types

Decorative wall key holders can be a wonderful gift that will delight the people close to you with their originality and unusualness. In addition, it is also an excellent helper for putting things in order.

Conventionally, all wall-mounted key holders can be divided into two types - open and closed.

The first ones are, in fact, any suitable base with hooks attached to it. The second ones are somewhat more difficult to implement, since they are a cabinet, very often with one or several shelves.

Open key holders

The easiest option for a novice designer is to make and decorate simple wall key holders with your own hands. The photos below give a rough idea of ​​what these things should look like. To design an open “key storage”, you can use anything that can easily be attached with hooks. Suitable for this:

• a figurine of a fish, a tree, a house cut out of wood;
• any board or old shelf;
• woven wire structure;
• glass or mirror.

In general, absolutely any common item can serve as the basis for creating such a thing as a wall-mounted key holder. Photos of such devices from
ordinary materials you can see just below.

Closed key holders

This kind of house (see photo) in the form of a locker will help hide from prying eyes not only all the keys you have, but also some not entirely attractive objects that are usually present in the hallway (an electricity meter or a box). It is worth noting that a closed wall-mounted key holder is an order of magnitude more difficult to make than an open one. For its production, both materials that can be purchased in handicraft shops and stores, as well as home-made cabinets made from wood, plastic and even thick cardboard are used. different forms and sizes. The closed wall-mounted key holder, the photo of which you see, is made using the decoupage technique.

You can decorate such a storage cabinet in a variety of ways, techniques and styles - from painting to decoupage or regular appliqué. If you don’t know how to draw or don’t know other methods, just glaze the cabinet and pour colored decorative stones, shells or coins inside. A watch mounted in the key holder will not only add functionality to it, but also give it a special style and charm.

Key holder from a photo frame

To make such a thing will not require a lot of time, effort and money. All you need is a small old frame, some acrylic paint, small screw-in hooks or glue such as Moment or Superglue.

First, you need to go over the frame with sandpaper to remove the old coating, then paint the surface with a suitable color palette and let it dry well. All that remains is to screw in the hooks at the bottom and along the inner upper area of ​​the frame.

Key holder made of cutlery

Making such a key holder, like the previous one, is not at all difficult, and it looks extremely creative. To make it you will need old unnecessary forks and spoons, wooden plank, glue. The blanks must be painted in suitable color, let it dry thoroughly. Cutlery must be bent in half and glued with a reliable means to the prepared surface. An extraordinary thing for the hallway is ready.

Key holder using decoupage technique

An open wall-mounted key holder will be a wonderful design element for your hallway, wooden surface which is perfect for decorating using decoupage technique.

This is an imitation of painting, which is performed on almost any suitable surface, be it wood, plastic, or metal. This is done using paper napkins, special ones, or your favorite designs printed on a printer.

To decorate such a thing as a wooden wall-mounted key holder, you will need:

• napkin, decoupage card or printer printout;
• plywood base;
• hooks;
• self-tapping screws of a size suitable for the hooks.
• glue for decoupage (you can use PVA with water 1:1);
• synthetic flat brush;
• screwdriver or screwdriver;
• jigsaw;
• acrylic, yacht or parquet varnish.

Decoupage is mostly done by women, so we take plywood, a jigsaw and go to our husband with a request to cut out a beautifully shaped figure suitable for a key holder from this nondescript piece of wood.

If you decide to use a napkin in your work, then it is better to treat the surface with acrylic paint in a light color, preferably White color. This will allow the picture to become brighter and not “get lost” against the general background of the composition. After the paint has dried, you can continue working. There are a great many descriptions of methods for gluing napkins, working with decoupage cards and printouts. To create such a thing as a wall-mounted key holder using the decoupage technique, you can use any method you like and that suits you specifically. The main thing is to carefully and at the same time thoroughly expel all the air from under the paper and smooth out any wrinkles or unevenness that have formed. After the glue has completely dried, the product must be coated with several layers of varnish. After applying the last layer, you need to let it dry well for 24 hours. After this time, hooks are attached to the key holder, and loops are attached to the back side for mounting on the wall.

By the way, you can use the same technique to decorate the door and inner surface closed "house".

Key holder made of plaster

Making a wall-mounted key holder with your own hands from plaster is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.

A hand-made wall-mounted key holder is an absolutely exclusive item, ideally suited to your taste and interior.

It’s great if in your home each item has its own place. This is especially true for small things that tend to fall over something and get lost. First of all, this applies to keys. They cannot always be found quickly if they are abandoned in an unusual place, even if it is in plain sight.

In our country, wooden key holders are the most popular. They can be purchased ready-made at most souvenir shops or made by yourself. You can make a key holder with your own hands from pieces of board, pieces of plywood or branches.

What is better - an open or closed key holder? The advantage of the first is ease of operation (there is no need to open anything in order to hang or remove the key). The advantages of the second are a more advantageous appearance and the ability to disguise certain unaesthetic details of the hallway (counters, mounting doorbell and so on.). Therefore, when choosing such items, it is better to focus on your taste and interior style.

The keeper of the keys in the shape of a regular quadrangle with glass door. And a product decorated using the decoupage technique will always look great. It will undoubtedly please all family members. The theme of the drawing can be vintage or fairy tale motifs.

Some key holders immediately stand out in the interior due to their brightness and beautiful appearance. Others are difficult to notice at first glance - they may be hidden in other details of the situation, i.e. be secret.

An example of the latter is the key holder built into the clock. This extraordinary design idea will appeal to all those who like to receive guests and those who prefer not to keep their keys in plain sight.

Where is the best place to place a key keeper?

Everyone knows that the place of the housekeeper is in the hallway. But where exactly should it be hung? There are no strict recommendations here. Any free and convenient place is suitable for its location.

It would be optimal to place the key holder closer to front door or to hangers for outerwear. We got ready, threw on a jacket or coat, grabbed a bunch of keys - and headed out.

• denim,
• cotton for lining,
• adhesive base,
• lace,
• a small piece of padding polyester.

The template includes seam allowances.

First, let's cut out the parts according to the diagram.

Using a cobweb we glue part 1 to denim blank 2. Fold the edges of the cotton, iron and sew with a zigzag.

Then the 2 pieces (jeans and cotton) are put together.

The blanks are folded along the seam and passed with an iron.

At the next stage, they begin preparing the ears. Parts 3 are connected at the edges.

Turn inside out and smooth out. The ears are sewn to the body, and the sides also go through.

In the picture, pink stripes mark the places for the holes of the cord on which the keys are attached.

All seams are stitched, leaving marked areas. The product is turned inside out and a lace slightly longer than the base itself is prepared. The fish is turned inside out and the edges are sewn together. The cat's face is embroidered.
The lace is inserted into the hole and the keys are attached.

The best way to keep your keys organized is with a wall-mounted key holder in your hallway! In my apartment, all the keys were lying around in bags and pockets until such a wonderful thing was done. It made life a lot easier and even freed up some free time. Moreover, it is practically perfect option hand-made gift for a housewarming or wedding. I guarantee 100% that the gift will look impressive, will impress everyone and will be remembered for a long time. In general, today is a master class on how to make a key holder with your own hands, choose for it beautiful design and securely fasten the fittings.

Materials for work

1. Wooden frame 13x18 cm or larger. The key holder in the photo is 17x22 cm. The width of the baguette profile itself should be at least 2.5-3 cm.). If we take a plastic frame, then the width of the baguette should be at least 3 cm and it cannot be overloaded with keys. It’s best if the frame has its own d-ring hanger, rather than a regular photo backdrop.
If you don’t have them, you can purchase them at a framing shop or some hobby stores.
2. Beautiful napkin or a picture with the desired image, or a ready-made decoupage krata.
3. Standard set materials for decoupage - glue, white primer, acrylic varnish, brush.
4. Hooks for keys (see the photo for options - half-ring screws, buttons or classic hooks) - they can be purchased at hardware stores
5. Knife, ruler, pencil, screwdriver, awl or drill, several self-tapping screws 3.5x16 cm.

Subsequence

The master class consists of two stages - performing decoupage and assembling the key holder. I start with decoupage.
1. I disassemble the frame, take the backdrop out of it and apply 2 layers of white primer. I wait for it to dry or blow dry it.
2. I glue the selected fragment of the decoupage card onto the glue.
3. After drying, I coat it with varnish in 2 layers. Again I wait for it to dry, then I put it in the frame. In general, nothing complicated. Now the master class is about to begin interesting stage With different options– attaching hooks.
4. If the frame is wooden, then select directly on it where the hooks will be screwed and mark holes for self-tapping screws with an awl or a pencil, drill and fasten the hooks. That's all. It's worse if the frame is plastic. Then either, at your own peril and risk, we attach hooks to the sides of the baguette itself, or we make more reliable design, as in the example in the photo. To do this, we assemble a wooden subframe inside. You can either order it ready-made from a framing workshop, or assemble it yourself from timber 2-3cm wide. and attach to the frame using mounting tape.
To show how all this can be done, I made my master class using a plastic frame. How to do this is shown in detail in the photo of the reverse side.
If you don’t want to tinker with the stretcher, then you can go the other way - at the very beginning of the work, remove the backdrop from the frame, measure with a ruler and cut out exactly the same piece of plywood or chipboard on which to decoupage, and then insert it into the frame. And attach the hooks directly to the plywood.
5. I hang it on the wall with 2 self-tapping screws, onto which I attach the d-rings of the frame. We don’t hang it on a rope or cable, it will dangle and the keys will start to fall off.
The master class is over. The key holder is ready!

This master class shows perhaps the simplest and budget method How to make a key holder with your own hands. It is simple in materials, manufacturing techniques and does not require much time.

Other ideas for making a key holder

There are plenty more different ways and ideas for making such a wonderful interior gift - from embroidery, with photos, comic and others. I will share my ideas with you.

With embroidery

One of the most comfortable and warm options– this is the manufacture of a key holder with embroidery. The photo shows three examples of such solutions, and in each of them the embroidery is framed not just in a frame, but in the form of an opening box with hooks attached inside. The inside of the box can be painted with acrylic paint or lined with velvet mat. Making a gift will take a lot of time, but the result is worth it! An easier way is to frame the embroidery and attach the hooks directly to the baguette, as in the next photo.
Another idea with embroidery for a wedding or housewarming is to make a metric on embroidery for the newlyweds or housewarmings with their names and the date of the important event. Such a gift immediately becomes personal and even more precious to its recipient.

With photo

If you don’t have time for embroidery, then why not insert a finished photo into a frame? Then you can simply screw the hooks onto the baguette as described in our master class. The idea is simple to implement, but it will be possible to preserve the personality of the gift, especially if, instead of a simple photograph, you make a small photo collage and decorate it using the digital scrap technique.

With humor

The wall-mounted key holder can be decorated in a comic style. Here's a short master class: take the backdrop out of the finished frame, sew several objects onto it - a banknote, vintage keys or any other suitable objects. Attach a printed sign on the bottom that reads “in case of urgent need, break the glass!”, then put it all back into the frame under the glass.

From the thread

A rather extravagant option for fans of eco-style can be made from a thick branch. The wood will have to be thoroughly dried and thoroughly soaked with furniture varnish, after which you will have to attach the hooks and get something like this non-standard solution for interior.

From a ready-made base

The easiest option is to make a key holder from ready-made decoupage bases, which are sold in hobby stores. A plywood blank can be made in any shape, for example, in the form of a house. It will have to be decorated using decoupage technique.

From old furniture

Another mega-creative option is to make a key holder from the door of an old locker. He explains in detail how to implement it next video Master Class:
