Teachers Day Gifts - Decoupaged Key Holders

Decoupaged Key Holders
       Hi friends, every year my daughter and I make Teacher's day gifts for my daughter's teachers. Over the  years we have gifted handmade photo-frames, pen-stands, tea light holders, note pad holders, post it note holders etc. 
This year I was short on time and ideas seemed to elude me! And we had to make 14 gifts so we chose a simple project - decoupaged Key Holders.
Decoupaged Key Holders
They were simple but turned out beautiful . It was time consuming but relaxing too to churn out these cute House shaped key holders!! And 2 pairs of hands are definitely faster as my kiddo helped in all the  painting and coating!
Teachers Day Gifts
The beautiful houses got several layers of Mod Podge and 2 final coats of a sealer so that they can even be wiped with a wet cloth

 I first debated making handmade flowers to add to the  design but finally decided that  " less is more"   is better for a functional project!
Teachers Day Gifts
 My daughter gifted them to her Teachers and yes I think the  teacher's loved them!

    Dear Dr Sonia
    As always they are lovely and cute and sure your dughter is a great crafter too. I wonder wht what you made them is it chip board or hardboard and can a cuttlebug handle chip board. I made the accordian style purse and it turned out great. I am going to make a few as birthday gifts.Thank you my Guru. I also wonder if i could put a link to your page as yours are greater.Love and hugs

      Oh you are so sweet Ms Surekha...you can of course put a link to my blog. And we didnt make the base...I picked the base from a lovely crafter who sells MDF bases here in Bangalore

    These are VERY beautiful and colourful and so very handy and functional too. I would think the teachers are thrilled to bits with them AND maybe look forward to your daughters gifts each year? LOL.
