DIY: key rack

Photobucket
This past weekend Soph and I set up DIY shop at DNA (Designers + Artists)'s Shopsocial LA event and enhanced one of our favorite DIYs: The Jewelry Branch. With a little bit of paint, and a lot less branch, we re-created the key to our organizational success.

How to: DIY Key Rack
You will need:
Branch
Twine
Scissors
Paint
Hammer
Nails
1. Paint colorful stripes (or polka dots or triangles or or orrrr) around your branch and let dry.

2. Hammer in the desired number of nails to use as key hooks.

3. Cut a piece of twine twice the length of your branch and tie to both ends of the branch.

4.Hang and enjoy!

Great idea for a DIY. I feel like if I found something like this at a festival, it would cost me a whole lot more than the cost of actually making the thing myself.

haha, that is really a nice idea!
