Key holder for the Gonzo's

So in this picture you see the entryway table that Cello and Melona have. One of the things that is missing is a key catcher so that when they get home, they just drop their keys and they are easy to find in the morning.

So I showed Melona a great idea for a key catcher by using a little appetizer dish with three little separate compartments labeled his, hers, yours. So I started searching at the thrift and I didn't quite find the exact same thing.
I did however find this little dish that I thought would work great! So I tried a little modgepodge to add the HIS and HERS to it.. check it out:

It looks HUGE in this picture, but it's not.

See I tossed my keys in there and they fit juuuuuuust right.
My other supplies. So here's the thing. I dont have modgepodge (its a real product!), but I do have Elmer's glue type stuff, so you just dilute it a bit and go with it.

See what I mean?
Then you paint on the words that you want to use. In this example, I am painting on the hers.




Mr. Nosey McNoserton! Pierre the beautiful.


See... Noooooooosey!

Almost finished!!!!! I forgot to take a picture of the 'finished' product, but just picture it almost the same as this picture, except that the white stuff dries clear!

Hasta!
