Turn an Old Credit Card into a DIY Wallet Key Holder

Turn an Old Credit Card into a DIY Wallet Key Holder


Want to keep a spare set of keys in your wallet without them bulking it up? Grab an old credit card and a cutter, and you'll soon have a DIY key holder that keeps them together and doesn't bunch them up.


As anyone who carries spare keys in his wallet will tell you, those little things have a way of moving about and lining up one next to the other until pretty soon, your wallet resembles this:


Turn an Old Credit Card into a DIY Wallet Key Holder


To avoid that, a user named MateFrio at EDCForums came up with a smart way to reuse an old credit card or any similar card. You'll basically be cutting two strips in the card and sliding your keys through them—with the heads on opposite ends, you can fit two keys easily and they won't move around.


MateFrio has a few tips you should check out at the full post below, like practising first on a card you don't care about, and bending the card after your first slice so it cracks for a clean cut.


If all of this seems like too much work for you, then try just duct-taping keys between two cards. I've tried that before and the problem is that once you remove them to use your spares, you don't feel like going through the trouble of duct-taping them again. The reusability of MateFrio's DIY trick is a better long-term solution.
