Last week, I noticed my husband fumbling around with his keys as he went to unlock the front door of our house. Then, he mumbled something about how he could never figure out which key went to which door. (We have a separate key for the front door of our house and for our apartment.)
As soon as my husband complained about the confusing keys, I remembered a great tip from Real Simple magazine. They suggested using nail polish to color-code your keys. Brilliant!

How to: Just lay the key flat and apply a thick coat of nail polish to the top. Use a different shade of nail polish to distinguish different keys.

My husband loved this idea and immediately asked me for a bottle of nail polish. He painted the front door key, let it dry, and hasn’t fumbled with his keys at the front door since.

HAHA my boyfriend does the SAME thing! I considered getting him a decorated key made (At Lowe’s/Home Depot/Hardware stores, you can have keys made with sports team logos, etc), but this is MUCH more economical. Plus, we’re moving on May 1st. I do giggle sometimes though as I hear him try about 3 keys before the door opens – is that mean? LOL
Men!
I’m sorry but that is just stupid. LOL.
This is brilliant! I am totally going home and painting my boyfriend’s keys. He’s always trying to unlock our place with the key to his mom’s house!
If I color coded my keys, I’d never remember which color went with which door!
whooo! Awesome idea!
