Cigar Box Wednesday

Another Wednesday - another cigar box. This one full of locks and keys; old, new, vintage, rusty, shiny, real and "for show"


It's easy to amass old keys - just look in your junk drawer, ask your friends and family to look in their junk drawers. Always a plethora of them at thrift shops as well. And most on-line scrapbook stores will have a collection of good looking old fashioned ones

The perfect finishing touch to that journal page or assemblage - often "the key" to the entire piece! (Sorry, couldn't resist - I know, I should have tried.)

  1. Love these Cigar Box Wednesdays!
    One can never have too many of those old keys...maybe we should all think twice about tossing them. Won't our kids be just OVERJOYED?....:
    "..OH, look what Mom left us!!!"
