I created this gift as a Christmas present to my future Brother In Law who is a County Cop here. I wanted to find a personalized gift for him that had to do with his profession, but had a difficult time. I went to the Wal*Mart Craft Department and looked around for a while. I ran across the Law Enforcement Scrapbook stickies and then found a wooden key holder. I bought silver spray paint and glue. I spray painted the key holder and allowed it to dry. Once it dried, I went over it with the glue to avoid the paint rubbing off. I then attached the scrapbook stickies and ended up with this. When he received it, he was quite pleased and thoroughly enjoyed it because it was such a unique gift.

Nice work. You are very creative. Oftentimes a hand made gift is the answer.

Well, handmade gifts in this case really was the answer. It was so hard to buy for him! I am not sure of what to buy for him this coming Christmas. I will probably end up making him something else - lol. Thank you for the compliments and for posting in the discussion.
