Key To My Heart

Key To My Heart

Key To My Heart

This year's Valentine's Day gifts for the men in my life is a take-off on my Bottle Cap Sun idea.

I stained a simple, inexpensive round plaque and used two coats of varnish. I affixed a heart (cut from the copper flashing I have in the garage) to the plaque with copper nails. And I used a screw to attach an interesting key to my wooden Valentine. I used a dab of brass-colored acrylic on the head of the stainless steel screw.

If I can do it, you know it's got to be easy!
