I once made a key small enough to fit in a bottle but then I forgot how I made that key. But now I figured it out again! So now I can make a teeny tiny key to fit in a teeny tiny bottle

Take your 24 gauge wire and clip off about maybe 5 or 4 inches. I'm not sure how much you'll need but it doesn't hurt to clip off more then you need, plus you could make another one if there's any wire left.
Make a loop at one end
If your making the classic key: Bend not to far from the loop. Now if your only gonna make a classic key then I suggest you move on the step 7
For a vintage key: Make another loop not to far from the first loop.
Make another loop, this one slightly bigger then the one before.
Then make another loop like the loop on step 4.
Then trim off alittle but at the loop less tail until your at a length you think will work Then make a loop where you trimed (Usually a piece of the vintage key breaks off but that's ok, it can be fixed)
Now take your 32 gauge wire, trim some off and start wrapping the key together. With the vintage key wrap it in the loops. And for that broken off piece if there is one, wrap it in too
And then make sure no wires are poking out. Then your done (classic key shown)
