Rustic Key Holder
With the little time I get on evenings and weekends to make things happen I try to do a small project here and there. I have decided to work with a little bit of reclaimed shiplap that I have been holding onto. So I decided to make something very simple and quick which resulted in a key holder for the entry way. I made it in just a couple of hours and have decided to try out Etsy and sell it on their platform. I have never used Etsy so it is a learning experience for me.
Here is the finished product.
This was a very simple project, and something you can do on your own if you don't want to shell out the money for a pre built one.
Shiplap has basically a tongue and groove which allows the boards to stick into each other allowing for extra stability.
Before starting I sanded the boards down with 80 and 100 grit sandpaper to knock off the real rough edges and splintered areas while leaving the rough look to the wood.
I then cut the boards down to size around 10 to 12 inches in length, however long you desire.
I spread some liquid nail into the grooves to allow for extremely tough hold as I have no doubt in the strength of this product. I let this sit for 24 hours to make sure it is dry before continuing with the project.
I offset each board to keep the rough imperfect look of the product.
I then nailed a rusty nail into each board for the keys, leashes, etc. to sit on.
The last and final step was to use picture hanging brackets on the back so it can to be placed on the wall.
That wraps up the project! Very easy and quick to do! Here is the key holder in action! And if you are interested in purchasing this product here is the link -

The Milwaukee power tools are by far my favorite and I have used many other brands. I feel you pay for what you get when it comes to tools.
Here is what I use when it comes to drills and impacts:
