As a parent there’s one thing you need to adjust to instantly. There will be Lego everywhere. Why not put a few blocks to good use and help you out?

To make Lego keychains, start by drilling a hole into the base of a Lego that is slightly smaller than the screw potion of an eyelet screw.

Next, wind the eyelet screw into the lego.

Thread a split ring through the hole and use it to attach keys.

Mount the lego board to a surface using your preferred method.

In this case, we mounted our lego plate to the wall in our mud room.

Attach the lego board to the wall by first marking the desired location for the board and making sure that it is level.

Drill pilot holes in the four corners of the lego board and into the wall.

To finish, drill screws with small enough heads to fit in between the lego pegs into the board. You’ll be so excited to put the Lego on the Lego board that you won’t lose your keys (hopefully) ever again!
