Abstract
An apparatus and method for attaching keys to a purse are disclosed. The apparatus includes a strap, a key-retaining device, a metal clip, and a long strap with a loop on the proximal end through which the distal end may be threaded. The method of the invention includes attaching one or more keys to the key-retaining device, wrapping the apparatus around the handle of a purse, threading the distal end through the loop on the proximal end, and tightening the strap such that the distal end hangs freely while the loop secures the apparatus to the purse.
