I have often said that I really enjoy gift-giving, but it's the gift-purchasing that always leaves me stumped.
Or, more accurately, the gift-purchasing ideas.
Between kids (what are their interests?) and teachers (where is the happy medium between practical and fun?) and family and friends (what in the world don't they already own?), I find that coming up with items that are unique and different is a continual challenge.
I want to give a gift that makes the recipient's eyes light up, not one that they'll politely thank me for and then immediately move on. That's why I know that when I'm shopping for items that define creative and innovative, that I simply need to visit page after page of UncommonGoods.com.
![UncommonGoods](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP8cA2sAx3Zrt8kMRkqWxVuSk2IFDt3kO4XYxnpOC6JUGSbsFojVBdOmGtVX52ORaD1G5siuDorhPCMOch0B7mIAo9wJ1Od1x8b3JgY9DqjcTjp21yhD4z6L4CWEuZXGx1wZxzFrVAHcw/s400/UncommonGoods.jpg)
Even if my shopping list states "gifts for husband" I'll find myself getting distracted over in the Dining & Entertaining and Jewelry & Accessories pages (which aren't things that are likely to lead to a present for my husband like these). Then I'll be back on track for a few minutes, only to find myself wondering who I know that could use a guitar pick punch.
![guitar pick punch](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSwXdJ6NNHKbHr3BIpolql1Wi53AV76YH3PYE32jxYzq7aJC-AcOMab9looNZXBBWr8tQNonXiYYIzTkZvOd4fAj9Lm5_ai1zoUFYc3UOrjeSlv48ZLrcRBBgdmgFpUw4j4ntQk8v9MZI/s400/guitar+pick+punch.jpg)
Hey, it could happen.
While I still think that it couldn't hurt to be prepared for Dave, in the meantime UncommonGoods had something that caught my eye even more. Considering the number of times that my husband and I have been stressed, frazzled and altogether angry about not being able to find our keys when we need them, how have we lived without the Buckle Up Key Holder?
![Buckle Up Key Holder](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoNqoj4iYNOOsVy2y_MMOF7mdQbwk0HSZ0LFEVE3rSG3e7lRxSHHWNKRLAmgv-kSXaj0-cAmmrSEH2fpOqbcJsDedmK3pT2hCUsaC2yPwpvV8LWgeAvqZhBpVyMfzjkNh8i5C7o8KQApY/s400/uncommongoods+buckle+up+key+holder.jpg)
And, when two Buckle Up Key Holders arrived from UncommonGoods, I couldn't wait to see if the amazement would translate in person.
![UncommonGoods Buckle Up Key Holder](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP4rke7bIPAsG0-EU-aqQfOCFY8aVRcr88XIEt1k0maiqK8lo84yzbee7H0KbThHylBHZAuTHRADwYk4ccsgLLsRLixdH3_ZYi-_0xTn_cZtxiI5nFJXFDOo-l9fjC0est2ATGywarEME/s400/uncommongoods+buckle+up+key+holder+review.jpg)
These are just so cool! Each one came complete with the buckle, a key fob and ring, and the choice of two hanging methods: two screws with anchors or two-sided tape.
![UncommonGoods Buckle Up Key Holder review](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp8Hd764g3Xv0QN0nn1kcveJx05_1_hc2vmbVgCDOegE_QIavJkdJ19Fz6_iSbpyDhAdBElZCsH0U3Uw70rJQopd3rDv-xVBiQwathQL_jZExcdx72EZqkQN4UcPsW22jk1oBRTeoGvtU/s400/never+lose+your+keys.jpg)

After attaching the fob to our key rings, all it took was popping them into place in the buckles and suddenly we would never have to search the house for our keys again.

Add to the that the what-in-the-world-are-those? amused reaction that these provide when guests come into our home and I just couldn't be happier with the results. These are just such a fun addition to display!
