I don't think they're cowboy hats. They're pins. They're more like a roughrider hat that the cavalry wore. I thought they might be part of a uniform. The other metal pins and tags say S.&.W.E.C. and M.R.E.P. CO. Those are white rocks of some sort - with sparkly gray running through them. I don't know if that's a ladies purse or some sort of ditty bag for men. The coin purse is double clasped. The center leather piece is missing from the frame, but I can see where it was stitched at one time so that it was a shallow coin purse one side and a longer one on the other. It's about 6" long. The paint brush is as soft as baby hair and doesn't look like it's been used. The red tip on the end looks like it was put there for a reason -- dunno. Those other metal things (I forget what they're called) are like victorian souvenir advertisements. One says "Dog On" Good Whiskey (there's more writing on the back -from Kentucky; the other is from the Alaska -Yukon - Pacific Exposition - Seattle 1909. Thanks for your input.

I don't have a great collection of keys as some are describing, but I'll chime in anyway. I used to be the worst with keys...the type to set them down anywhere and walk away without even noticing I set them down. I could always stumble across them at home. My trouble happened when I'd set them down at work (the office), or...even worse...at construction job sites where I'm going in 4 different directions at once. One day I decided I'd had enough. My everyday keys (car, house, office, and temporary work-issued) are on the same lanyard all the time. If they are not around my neck, they are in my purse. No exceptions. I had to work hard at forcing myself to put them on my neck at first, but after a couple months it became a habit, and now it's like signature jewelery with me...just like the pen stuck behind my ear all the time. Haven't misplaced my keys in over a decade now. Even have a couple co-workers who picked up the lanyard habit on a seasonal work-purpose basis. We laugh at ourselves, but we all agree we can't imagine life before the lanyard. All my spare keys are kept together on 1 ring in an undisclosed location. They are not labeled because I only have 4 keys & they are quite obvious to me and the burglar who finds them. Nothing I can do or care to do about that. IF I had extra non-everyday keys, I absolutely would label every single one. I personally would keep them all in 1 key place...all together...in that same undisclosed location. My dad keeps his incidental keys in the rooms/functional spaces where the keys are used. Such as: boat & misc garage keys are kept in the garage. He keeps household keys (lockboxes, file cabs, spare house, etc) in the house in obvious rooms to him. I could not do that. It's easier for my brain to go to the 1 key spot, get what I need, and go from there. I refuse to go through a flowchart in my head as to what key I need = what purpose does it serve = what room do I go to. Keep it simple. Gayle

I keep my keys in my pocket so keyring tags drove me crazy especially when I stuck my hand in my pocket and got sliced by one of the tags. I solved the problem by putting all the tags on a split ring and adding a clip to hang it from my purse. I unclip the ring, hand it to the cashier and then hook it to my purse again. They are all in one spot and the clerk has to look thru the tags to find the right one. Just my passive-aggressive nature coming through. If all the stores want you to have them, then they can look through the mess to find the right one!

My privacy and personal security is important to me so I never give out my phone number, address and other info when I don't need to so the store cards will not have my address, phone or even a correct spelling of my name for that matter. They don't need it so they don't get it and I don't really like the cards anyway so I don't and won't have many. I refuse cards from stores that require a driver license to get a card. It's none of their business. I don't have pictures of my keys but I keep two "rings" so to speak. My current vehicle is the first I've ever had that uses one of the remote fobs. It doesn't make sense to me to carry the key and the fob on the same ring. If you lose one, you lose the other and then you can't get into it. And if you lock one in the vehicle, you're SOL. So I have them on separate rings. On the "key" ring, I simply have a plastic belt clip (similar to the clips sometimes used on a leash like this) to clip it to the carabiner (to the other key ring) on a belt loop, the vehicle key, a house key and a couple of the store cards. Very simple and very basic. The other keyring has a carabiner to clip to the belt, the remote fob, a bottle opener and a tiny LED flashlight. Both key rings will clip to the belt loop and drop into my pocket so if they come loose, they drop into my pocket instead of onto the ground. I know a couple people who have had their ignition switches damaged from too heavy a keyring and what they went through with that is not worth the risk to me. I don't need all the keys I used to have to carry and I've never liked 20 key fobs on a ring. Don't like all the weight in my pocket wearing holes in my pants.
