Hi everyone! I'm an art student working on a project about keys, and l'd love to hear personal stories behind them🥺 Would anyone be willing to share a key that means something to them, along with the story behind it? ❗️Please avoid posting photo of your actual keys, just in case someone might misuse them.

  • It could be a house key connected to a special memory, something that happened in a particular place, or even a small part of your everyday life.

  • It doesn't have to be a house key, either. Maybe it belongs to a drawer, or something else entirely. Perhaps there's a reason you've kept it for years, or a memory attached to it that you've never really thought about sharing.

Thanks for reading, and thanks to anyone who feels like sharing☺️

First car key. Car was wrecked but I'll always have its fob

Awww, as long as you see it, you’ll be reminded of your first car and all the adventures you had together in different places. Though maybe your second car key will start kicking up a fuss, demanding to be treated just as well as the eldest :3
