The Golden Key

If you love magazines as much as I do, you may have seen the latest ad of Tiffany & Co. featuring these Tiffany Keys:


I'm not sure if you can read the text, but I really love the lines "A promise of adventure" and "A secret kept". Sigh! These are gorgeous, especially the diamond-studded ones. To resist the urge to shop, I think I'll craft instead.

With Tiffany keys as inspiration, I'm turning this old key and a bunch of stuff from the bag of scrap from blah to Tada!.

An embellished key for me...

...until I'm ready to purchase my Tiffany Key!

    How cool--now I have a use for all the spare keys that don't seem to have a keyhole to fit!
