Wall key holder: photo with a description of the models

In general, the key house can be divided into two main categories: open (metal, wooden, leather) and closed models (used for careful or strict storage).Open wall key holders are a lightweight design with a holder that simply complements the overall design of the apartment.

Decorating is made from scrap material

Closed key holders are the most presentable, they look like a small "house" for keys.

All models are made independently at home

Note! Closed wall decorative key holders can perform several functions at once: in addition to carefully storing keys, they hide unwanted details of the hallway, such as a counter or wires.

What models are found and what can you opt for

There are several types of wall key holders for the house:

Wall		The structure is usually placed at the exit at eye level.Any detail can be used as hooks: wire, handle, simple piece of wood, and even a fork. Anything that gathers dust in the house can be used as an additional detail.

How to make a housekeeper with your own hands from cardboard

Even from ordinary cardboard, you can create a unique little thing for your home.

We carry out construction from improvised material

Before work you need to prepare:

Heart shaped cardboard blanks.
Printout on photo paper, cut from the blanks.
Some acrylic primer.
Awl.
Bone.

Blanks for future composition

Making the basis for the key store:

First, we glue the cardboard blanks.

From the back side, we twist the wires together

Next, we attach the next workpiece from behind, it turns out that the mount is hidden. On the front, we attach a printout with markings for the hooks and pierce the holes for the screws.

It looks something like this

Note! Check that all screws are free to pass through the holes before applying the varnish.

The base is ready, then proceed to work with the printout: you need the printout itself and a sponge for washing dishes. We put the photo face down and blot the paper, swipe to roll the top layer.

It looks something like this

Next, carefully glue the picture to the cardboard using PVA. After drying, we cover the product with varnish.

Conducting creative work

Here you will need:

The workpiece itself.
Brushes.
Putty.
Acrylic paint.
Palette knife.

Note! You need to cover with primer carefully so as not to clog the texture of the picture.

At the end, we cover our model with several layers of acrylic lacquer of the coloring agent and mount a place to store the keys.

Do-it-yourself housekeeper decoupage master class

Wooden blank in the form of a house.
Napkin with a picture.
Adhesive composition for decoupage.
Brushes.
Matt lacquer.
Light-colored ground mix.
Scissors.
Texture paste.
File.

Do-it-yourself decoupage of a wall key holder, the first stage of work:

Photo	Description
Preparing the surface	First, we prime the wooden house with two layers, then we plaster.
Cut out the image	Cut out the desired image from a pre-prepared napkin.
We lay the file with the pattern down	It is imperative to separate the layer where the drawing is depicted and apply the adhesive composition. Then we put the image on the file, drawing down. We spread the resulting result with glue on top.
Place the image and apply varnish	After that, we lift the clerical file and attach it to our house. Place the image with the glue applied and roll over the file. After all the work, we carefully remove the file and let the product dry completely. Paint over the borders with a light color and wait until our housekeeper dries completely. After that we apply several layers of matte varnish.

House decoration

At the second stage, we decorate the wall decoupage of the housekeeper with our own hands. We will need a brickwork pattern and structural paste for further steps.

Here is such an interesting model at the end.

First you need to glue the roof and, using a palette knife, apply a layer of paste, which gives the structure.After drying, apply glitter and a silvery shade of paint. Let it dry again, then the house is varnished, dried and fasteners for keys are mounted.

Decoupage of a pocket housekeeper

In addition to wall and table key holders, there are also pocket models. Such a little thing is not just an image of the owner, but also performs several functions. We will describe in a little more detail how to make a pocket housekeeper with your own hands. Let's take the simplest but popular option. For this we need:

Leather flap, size 150 * 105 mm.
Leather-colored rivets.
Blank for key storage with carbines.
Punch.
Scissors.

The pocket keeper will become much prettier if it is rounded off the edges. To make the markup correctly, you can use a regular bottle cap.

We carry out such an interesting model

Next, we carry out the actions in the following order:

First, we apply blanks with carbines.
We put the bunch of keys and wrap the edges to determine the place for the rivets and make notes.
Under the place under the keys, we make a gasket to strengthen the whole model.
We make holes for all the marks applied using a punch.
We fix the blank with rivets and fasten the rivets on the cuffs.

Decorative stitching made of contrasting thread with a slight indentation from the edge will give a special raisin.

At the end

The main purpose of the key holder is storage in the form of a drawer or cabinet made of various materials, in some cases from improvised means. For example, for a large family, where there are many keys to the office, garage and apartment, you will have to make the model stronger, in the form of a metal cabinet.

The size of the model is determined in each case individually, depending on the number of family members. The external design is matched to the interior of the room.
