Love this tutorial...thanks for sharing. I think this technique will work well on other small boxes such as ones jewelry comes in. Excited to give it a try since I have all of the supplies.
I had no idea this is so easy to do and the results are gorgeous. You also inspired me with the postage stamps. I have some old philatelic materials I won't part with because I am convinced they are good for something and this project demonstrated how to incorporate them in crafting. Thank you!
I love this! Just saw your video...I know I’m a bit late to the party. Some people go all out with their tins. They are next level creatives but for a beginner like myself this gives me a great base to build upon. Thank you for sharing!
Awesome!! I have several Altoids tins that I began saving after I became aware of making little kits out of them. I even have some old Band-Aid tins that I hung on to when I realized everything was switching over to cardboard boxes. So all this time, I've been thinking of what I would put INSIDE of them, never giving thought to decorating the OUTSIDE. Thank you!
This is absolutely gorgeous! You gave me an idea of what to do with some of my photos of Italy and Greece that I have (I used them a lot to make book marks) and use the tins to store earrings (small ones that I also make). All I need now is washi tape, which I have none. Thanks for your wonderful video!
Paper Tams Gary’s is literally 5 mins away! And guess what? We haven’t been there yet! Lol we keep saying we will but then when we go out to eat we forget about it! So, i guess it’s good, we better get there!
Thanks for this - it gets me started. How did you make the lid cover that's in the shape of the Altoids "banner frame"? By pressing a piece of paper on it to get the imprint?
Thank you for this tutorial! I love the red altoid tin. What did you use to distress this one? It doesn't look like you used washi, but maybe used a paint wash over the whole lid? Thanks for any help you can give with this one. Merry Christmas, to you!
Love this. Just found your videos and I'm ready to do a tiny tin right now!💜

Catherine L thanks Catherine. Yes, it’s very easy. I enjoy breaking down the mystique of pretty things and figuring out how to make it easy. 🤓
Great idea. It sure caught my attention with the stamp motif since I collect those. Thx!
I've been making mini watercolor travel kits out of almonds boxes. I love these decorating ideas.

Monica Saez I’m glad you enjoyed it.

Jay Tee thanks! As far as the thumbs down, that just comes with the territory.
thanks so much for sharing this, i've been saving mint tins and will definitely give this a try!

Very nice, thanks for the diy

Lark in TN yes. I just cut the paper to size and use a corner rounder. Then I mod podge it to the lid. Thanks for taking the time to watch.
Oh, I meant the one where the paper was cut to match the irregular frame on the lid. Didn’t I see one like that?
Yes, the Christmas tin lid is specially cut
Oh wait - maybe you cut the paper just slightly smaller than the frame.
Thank you for this tutorial! I love the red altoid tin. What did you use to distress this one? It doesn't look like you used washi, but maybe used a paint wash over the whole lid? Thanks for any help you can give with this one. Merry Christmas, to you!
Than you. It has a layer of clear mod podge and a light spraying of Tim Hultz distressed spray stain. Merry Christmas!
Paper Tams thanks so much!
I will def be making one! Love it! Did my sea glass card arrive in one piece? Hope so... lol
Rosy Moon May yes! So lovely. I responded to your letter this past week.
No rush at all. So relieved it stayed in tact.
