Free Key Fix

Do you have keys that look exactly the same but are for different locks?

Well, I do and it drives me crazy! 
Without fail it seems I grab the wrong one first and that can be a pain in the butt when you're carrying 15 grocery bags.



I thought about using tape or something like that to mark them- but then it hit me! Nail Polish!

I grabbed a couple of shades to try it out and the first coat took awhile to dry- like at least a hour. But it bonded well.

You wanna plan to do at least two coats, just like your nails.
Is it driving you crazy, like it's driving me crazy, that the pink was painted too far over on the right side?
I ended up with three coats- and have had "nail polish keys" for a week testing out the durability. No chips or peeling, so I'm calling it a success!
A sad and true story.
I told the hubby the hot pink key was for his key chain, expecting him to know I was kidding and that it was actually the white one. What does it say about me that he unquestioningly put the pink one on his key chain?
Perhaps I can be unreasonable and controlling at times.
