DIY key holder

Practical solution using spray marker

This wooden key holder is so simple to make. Thanks to the deep hole spray marker from edding, it’s incredibly easy to mark your drill holes. Simply insert the marker tip into the holes in the shelf, press down and you’re done! The spray marker is perfect for marking the position of drill holes accurately, no matter what the angle. What’s more, the green chalk is easy to wipe away with a damp cloth if you make a mistake.

Step-by-step

Step 1

You can see all the equipment you need for this project in this picture. If you’re not using a ready-made shelf, you’ll first need to construct a small shelf using 3 blocks of wood. You’ll also need to drill two holes in the back of the shelf so you can hang it on the wall.

Step 2

Position your shelf against the wall and use a spirit level to check that it’s straight. Place the tip of the deep hole spray marker into each shelf drill hole and press down once to mark the position of the hole.
