Funny Hand-Stamped Key Tags with Outrageous Sayings

Stacey Bowers

There’s Food At Home Key Tag for those of us who need a gentle reminder that there’s perfectly good gruel at home.

There’s Food At Home Key Tag for those of us who need a gentle reminder that there’s perfectly good gruel at home.

Key tags make the perfect, universal gift for any person. Add a personal or funny touch, and you’ve got the perfect gift they’ll carry with them everywhere.

Getting into the holiday spirit, I just added a ton of new funny key tags to the shop, including ones that say “Did You Turn Off the Stove?” and “There’s Food At Home” for those who need a little help being responsible adults and ones that say “Hang Onto Your Britches, Bitches” and “Get Out of My Way” for the speed demons in your life. Then there’s the “Parallel Parking Extraordinaire” key tag for the extra special talented ones…

I also made it easier to shop the classic keychain phrases all in one place through the “Key Tags” tab of the site. There you can find all the funny key tag phrases you’ve probably seen on our Instagram account: the “My Other Car Is Your Dad” key tag, the “Jesus Take the Wheel” key tag, the “Don’t Make Me Turn This Car Around” key tag and many more.

Tell your dad I said watch out… “Key To Your Mom’s House” Key Tag

Tell your dad I said watch out… “Key To Your Mom’s House” Key Tag

Don’t see a keychain that suits just what you need? You can come up with your own saying and I’ll stamp it for you! Just order a custom key tag here.

Custom key tags are perfect for anyone who has car keys, house keys, apartment keys, dorm keys, keys to your moms house, etc.
