DIY Quickie(s): More Painted Skeleton Keys


I was sooo smitten with how last night's turquoise skeleton key turned out, that I just had to do a few more today.  As much as I love turquoise and would wear it with anything, I'd love to have one of these necklaces in every color to match any outfit. ;)



So out came all the nail polish.


And the index cards.  


And then some $3 jewelry chain from the craft store.


I can't decide which of these little beauties to wear first!


Maybe I'll wear them all at once!


Side note: These babies'll look pretty as decor hung on the wall, too.

And for the heck of it... here's pics of the turquoise key I painted and wore last night.
(Just in case you missed the post.)




=) I love old keys!

You can also find them at a locksmith. Yard sales and flea markets. You can also order them online, ebay, other sites just do keys.
