Tilda & Edwin's Christmas Key Holder

Hi there, i decided to alter another kitchen ustensil but this time i made it into a useful item for holding keys. First of all i applied some hooks and added some bows and holly & berries above them and i thought it would be fun to put 'Chef Edwin' sitting on the holly, ouch!! I also used 'Kitchen Tilda' and put her at the opposite end and added another bow with a Christmas tree charm. I coloured both images with Promarkers, I finished it all off with a tag and some white cord to hang it.
