Not only is this project cute, but it is simple! Now your keys can hang in style and you'll never lose them again, right? Supplies:
1. First step is to bend your utensil. The easiest way to do this is to drop the utensil into boiling water. Once submerged for a few minutes, use tongs or something similar to remove the silverware from the boiling water. While wearing cleaning gloves, bend the silverware around something small and round. 2. Paint your wood piece a fun color using 1-2 coats of acrylic paint. 3. Once the paint is dry, glue the triangular hook to the back of the wood. Just make sure it is straight or your key rack won't hang straight. 4. Glue the utensil to the front of the wood piece using the smallest amount of Gorilla glue possible. If you use too much glue, it will puff up alongside the silverware, so be careful. 5. Find the perfect place to hang your brand new key rack! Originally by designspongeonline.com
