10 Craft Ideas to do With Key Coloring Pages
Once those wonderfully colored key pages are complete, don't let them gather dust! These easy and affordable crafts are perfect for putting your masterpieces to good use.
1. Mystery Key Door Hanger
Cut out your colored keys and glue them onto a piece of sturdy construction paper cut into a door hanger shape. Decorate with a fun message like “Secret Room Inside” or “Adventure Awaits.” Punch out the top hole to easily hang it on any doorknob.
2. “Key to My Heart” Card
Fold a piece of construction paper in half to create a card. Carefully cut out one of your colored keys and glue it prominently on the front of the card. Write a heartfelt message inside, making it a perfect gift for someone special.
3. Key Chain Charms
Cut out several small colored keys from your pages. Laminate them using a laminator or by covering both sides with clear packing tape to make them durable. Punch a small hole at the top of each key and attach it to a metal key ring or a twisted pipe cleaner loop for a custom charm.
4. Treasure Chest Decoupage Box
Find a small cardboard box (like a shoebox or craft box). Cut out many smaller colored keys from your pages. Use glue to decoupage the keys all over the outside of the box, overlapping them slightly to create a rich, textured look for your very own treasure chest.
5. “Unlock Your Dreams” Bookmark
Cut out a long, rectangular strip of cardstock to serve as your bookmark base. Glue one of your colored key cut-outs to the top or bottom of the strip. Punch a hole at one end and thread a colorful yarn tassel through it to create a unique bookmark for your favorite books.
6. Keyhole Secret Scene
Cut a large keyhole shape from a piece of black construction paper. On a separate sheet of lighter paper, draw or glue a small “secret scene” (like a tiny garden or a hidden map) and add a few small colored keys within it. Layer the keyhole paper over your scene, so you can peer through the keyhole to discover the hidden keys.
7. Master Key Mobile
Cut out keys of various sizes from your finished coloring pages. Attach each key to a different length of string or fishing line. Tie the strings to a criss-crossed frame made of popsicle sticks or thin cardboard strips, creating a balanced mobile to hang and spin.
8. “Key to Success” Award
Create a certificate or award shape from poster board or thick cardstock. Cut out a prominent colored key and glue it at the top or center of the award. Write “Key to Success” or “Key to Achievement” on it, then fill in details to celebrate a personal accomplishment.
9. Key Garland of Possibilities
Cut out numerous keys from your colored pages, making sure to vary their shapes and sizes. Punch a small hole at the top of each key. Thread them onto a long string, ribbon, or pipe cleaner, alternating with colorful beads, to create a decorative garland to hang across a wall or doorway.
10. Secret Key Map
Take a piece of brown paper (like a flattened paper bag) and crumple it gently to give it an aged, map-like texture. Flatten it out and glue several of your colored keys onto different spots on the “map.” Label them with fun names like “Hidden Cove Key” or “Ancient Ruins Key” to mark imaginary treasures.
