Easy to Make Key Holder

Lately I have been finding a ton of DIY key holders, but either I don't have the "stuff" to make it or I don't like they way they look. All I know was throwing our keys in the basket with all of the dog's things and random junk just wasn't cutting it. Everything was cluttered and getting lost!

I was cleaning the apartment this morning and walked past this awful picture frame I had on the wall. You know, the one that comes in that huge set that you just throw on the wall to put something up. It was long, awkward and had this awful white backdrop to surround the picture. My first thought was to use some scrapbook paper and give it a new background. But then I thought, I still wouldn't like how the pictures looked so small in such a large frame... and

voila! Instant, bright key holder! I used the old frame, leftover paint I had from a different project, pushpins and wooden letters. I absolutely love it! I still plan to add a border down the two sides of the middle section. I was thinking possibly buttons- what do you think? 
Here is another image of the entire entry way. I think it adds so much, before it was just the clock and a mess of clutter on the table. I absolutely love it and it really does transform the feel when you walk up the stairs!
