I’m somewhat obsessive about my keys. I’m constantly worried that I’m going to lock them in my car or lose them, so I’m really careful with them. It might also have to do with the fact that I no longer have a spare key for my car, so if I lose my keys, I’m really in trouble. I’m constantly carrying them in my hand or double checking that they are in my purse.
But despite this slightly compulsive behavior, my keys go missing at least 3 times per week. You know, the kind of missing where you are pulling up the couch cushions to find them? Not that they would ever be under there, but you’re so desperate, no place is off-limits. And with toddler hands on the loose, craving shiny things, there’s no telling where they could be. The girls carry the keys around until they are no longer fun, then promptly drop them in an undisclosed location. And Hazeline isn’t going to tell you where they are, either. Trust me, I’ve tried to break her silence. She just smiles, giggles, and waddles away, leaving me to play the game of “where did they go this time?” Only to find them in the most obvious of locations…the refrigerator. No doubt she had some help from Greenleigh on that one.
The answer to all of this? Easy. Fobskeys. Not sure what a Fobskey is? Let me help. Developed by Catherine at cat o’neal designs, Fobskeys are fabric wrist bands with hardware for attaching your keys. The 1.25 inches wide and 10 inches around (including hardware) design, easily fits over most wrists, allowing you to wear your keys until you can get to a toddler safe area. This is my main problem, I get home and try to get everyone and everything in the house at one time. After getting the keys out of the door I throw them in my purse, where they are at risk of being picked up by toddler hands. Fobskeys allow you to wear your keys around your wrist until you get to the table, hook, or countertop where you typically keep your keys.
Fobskeys are the perfect size – they are small enough to wear around your wrist comfortably, but big enough that they won’t get lost in your diaper bag. They’re fashionable too. They come in tons of different patterns, and can be monogrammed. They make great gifts for moms, teachers, bridal parties, grads, anyone! Most importantly, Fobskeys will allow you to stop needlessly searching your couch cushions 3 times per week. Sounds like a plan to me!
Here are just a few of the great Fobskey designs available.
You can also get Fobskeys to reflect your personality and interests. For example, like music? This one’s for you!
She can even do them in your favorite teams fabric. But this one is my absolute favorite. Love it!Want to win a Fobskey of your very own? Well I have great news for you – The extremely generous Catherine at cat o’neal designs has offered one lucky reader 3 Fobskeys in their choice of patterns! Keep one for yourself and give the others away, or keep them all for yourself. It’s up to you! Enter to win using the Rafflecopter form below.
