I use these mini clear hooks for my keys and for a mini halogen flashlight so I have my keys and mini flashlight handy in an an emergency.... I always know where my keys are....I'm in the habit of putting them on these little hooks. I lined up three little hooks in a row in a corner of my kitchen, so they are neat and out of the way. I also used these hooks for curtain tiebacks! They work great for the curtains as well! And since they are clear, they are not distracting from the curtain! I still have some that are not in use and I am hoping to find more uses for them as time goes on. I also use the larger hooks for various things around my apt.
