DIY key/tip holder question

[autjo]

Glad I could help

 

I am going to send the luggage tags to the guests a month before the wedding. I made a vistaprint brochure to go with them. Also, I used bright orange cardstock to make the luggage tags to make it easier to identify your luggage and who is in our group.

I just received my shipment of these and I'm a little worried they might be too small... a standard size business card just barely fits and I'm not sure if a hotel key will fit in them We'll just have to wait and see! We're going away this weekend, so I will take one to check if the hotel key fits.

Good call. Please keep us posted!!!

Amy I too had the same fear when I received mine!

 

I got my VistaPrint business cards so I did a trial run, put in a business card & my security key card from work (same size as electronic room keys) & 6 $1 bills folded up and it all fit! No problem!

 

I was totally shocked but it works

Oohhh, good to hear. I was starting to worry I had a big pile of useless plastic! Phew!

[autjo]

I bought the same ones had that fear when they arrived all stuck together and barely able to open!!! But tried it out like KittenHeart and everything fit.

Phew!

[KittenHeart]

Haha! I love that we all bought the same ones and the same fear =)

 

Yes I really love them now, I have one made sitting on my dining room table and I smile at it every time I walk by

I bought the around the neck key holders to use instead of the clips or coil wrist band as I have use the other ones before and didnt like them too much. They kept bugging my wrist and the clip snagged my bathing suit on a number of occasions. So I opted for the teathers. I now have to track down the plastic key holders as they are expensive here in Canada.....ugh! lol

Suzy! I was looking at some of these online too! The ones I saw were: D-shaped and circle shaped and these ones you can select which colour(s) you want as well.

BUT, the mixed colour lot from Oriental Trading Company are quite a bit cheaper. I'm just not sure if they are quite big enough to clip onto the handles of travel mugs like I wanted!! Maybe if there are a couple of us that have different colours, we could split them between us? I'd prefer purple the most, and would go for the blue or black as second choices...

merocket59 - It took me a few minutes to figure out what OTC stood for but I got it! I was wondering if you could tell me whether or not they'd be able to clip on to the handle of a travel mug though... most of my guests won't be going anywhere on the resort without their mugs and keys so why not have them attached together!?! Thanks!

Kittenheart - I'm in the same club worrying about whether those key holders would be the right size!! I'm relieved to hear that they should fit everything we need. Originally I wasn't going to do luggage tags but now that a site with the little plastic luggage loops was posted (luggage tag loops) then I just might have to order some MORE key holders just for those!! LOL!
