1. Great idea!

2. Many thanks Arthur. Good luck with your search ^_^

3. FANTASTIC! My fiance and I have been talking about doing something similar for a long time.

   What did you use to stick it to the wall?

4. Hi Stephanie,

   I used those double sided sticky foam pad things! ^_^

5. I LOVE this!! I am forever losing my keys – this is definitely the way forward!!

6. Such a brilliant idea!

7. This is just so darn cleaver and FUN. Love it! And even tho my son is 16 I still had an odd assortment of Lego’s with the right pieces to make the key holder!

   Thanks!

8. Yay! Glad you found the pieces you needed! ^_^

9. Found the link to this page on pinterest and I was so excited!! My boyfriend is 25, but still has several totes of legos he insisted on bringing when we moved into our apartment. This is such a cool way to use some of his legos and find our keys! Thanks for sharing this!!

10. Hi there…I got mine from ebay but there seems to be less for sale than there was a few days ago! Let me know where you are in the world and I will try to find out.

11. Yay…hope he likes it Renee!

12. We both love how it turned out! I found different pieces with holes in them, but it still works just fine! Thanks again!

    Here’s how mine turned out 🙂

15. Very cute, love the idea of this! I’m always putting my keys down somewhere and then not being able to find them…

16. Lego also has lego magnets for the fridge. If you used one of them as the base, then you’d have a magnetic key holder. Love this idea!!

17. Thanks Kristen ^_^

18. Love that idea Laura…would be really easy to stick magnets to a regular baseboard too. I have used neodymium magnets for other projects…they are super small and super strong and would do a great job (I think regular magnets wouldn’t be strong enough to hold up a bunch of keys).

19. Looks great Renee. Big pat on the back 🙂

20. You can also get these pieces -and many other pieces – directly from LEGO through their Pick-A-Brick program. Right now I only see the grey on my search, but you can look through to see what else there may be.

    Love this idea!!!

21. I ended up making one of these today. My son always comes in the door and can never remember where he put his key. He is a HUGE lego fan, so I showed him this and he went to work. I liked it so much I decided to use it for myself and my daughter, so we made room for 3. We even put our own lego characters on top to show whos spot is whos.

    Thanks so much for this idea, I love it!!

23. I’ve made a modified version of this design that fits on the back of a shelf. I note that up to four of part 3176 can fit together to easily join different key rings.

24. This is an amazing idea!!

25. Awesome! I made jewelry out of legos, but I didn’t have any trouble drilling holes in them. At first it felt like I was desecrating them, but when I was done the holes were nearly invisible and the legos were still usable. That sort of made it more acceptable.

26. Hmm, I am thinking it is very suitable for a child’s room, but not a stylish home like mine!

27. Clever, I could use a male minifig and female minifig to distinguish my keys from my partner’s 🙂 And for a stylish house, just cover the plate with “flat” no-stubs parts 😉

28. I take your point but I think ‘style’ is very subjective matter ^_^

29. zpaulo…I made an all white one the other day and it looks lush. Like your idea about using no-stubs pieces ^_^

30. Thanks Guiseppi…nice to know your thoughts ^_^

49. Hi…it sits under the blue piece…makes it easier to get the blue piece off the board….entirely optional though ^_^

50. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve visited a Lego Store and looked at all the numerous Lego figure key holders and found…NOTHING that I wanted. This DIY project is so fantastic, simplistic, and so versatile. Thank you for sharing it!

51. How do you mount it to a wall, so it wont just tear off every time you take your keys off it? Really cool though.

52. If you have extra pieces that look like that, you can attach them together on opposite directions to make a heart

53. Hi Brandi…the blue bit stays on the key always…it become a keyring as such.

54. no worries….I’ve had plenty of dumb moments today so welcome to the club 🙂

    I have had mine for years, works like a charm!

56. I want to make this for my friends wedding as He proposed to her using a sweet slide show with a mini fig holding the ring. I am confused as to how the mini fig is attached. I thought it would be a great place for them to display said mini fig but have to tell them how. Thanks!

57. Hi there to every one, for the reason that I am in fact eager of reading this weblog’s post to be updated daily.

58. Lol! My little brother has like 5 of those… And creator of this article, if you are reading this, there are actually Lego light switch covers that you could use to make the key holder!

59. Everyone should add a little more LEGO in their lives.

60. How is it attached to the wall, preferably without glue which might mess up the wall

61. Dzięki za wspaniały pomysł, to jest genialne 🙂

62. wow, this is amazing! simple, but omg amazing!

63. CBD Gummies have been a game-changer fit me! They’re convenient, tasty, and a great mo = ‘modus operandi’ to get off on the benefits of CBD discreetly. I’ve found that they employees me unwind after a fancy day and to ground my drowse quality. Extra, wily definitely how much CBD I’m getting in each gummy makes it easy to make it my dosage. If you’re kinky involving maddening CBD, gummies are a capacious starting point. Hardly be sure to determine a reliable sort with high-quality ingredients for the treatment of the best observation!
