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☺️



About a decade ago I had a roommate who worked at a movie theater. They called me one evening because they’d broken the key off in the lock trying to close up for the night. I went down to hang out with them while they found a 24hr emergency locksmith. I still have the bow of the broken key that says DO NOT DUPLICATE.
Ohh a key head that says DO NOT DUPLICATE! That’s really a collector’s item😼It probably never imagined it would retire from the cinema so early in life and end up spending its golden years just lying around everydayyy ;3 I wish my life had more absurd, exciting, and entertaining little adventures like this! Also, I wish I had a friend who worked at a cinema(Although I have no idea if they’d get access to more free movie tickets :3
