I LOVE Pinterest! I have found a handful of amazing ideas using recycled (or upcycled) Altoid tin boxes over this past year, and I am so excited to try some of them. Check out all of these awesome ideas! Some are simple, some are super crafty, some are incredibly brilliant. I can't wait to try some of these! Which do you love?

I love upcycling mint tins. I'm pinning this post so I can return to many of them. I've created mini lessons with mint tins before (here), and I love these creative ideas.

ReplyDeleteOh one I made you don't have on here is a travel tin for tea bags. I have several friends who only drink tea and carry tea bags with them all the time. The tin was decorated with all kinds of tea pics, etc... and they could keep their tea bags safe in the purse or bag.

Thanks for sharing this post I also share with you some tip hope you like. A four-piece box that can come in large or small sizes (small shown); can be customized by telescoping in and out; use crumpled packing paper in the corners to add cushion and make sure to wrap your mirror or picture with bubble wrap before placing it in the box

These tips to much helpful for party hope I am post for my friend These boxes aren't necessary as most movers will wrap your mattress in plastic bags which are much cheaper to purchase. However, boxes will keep your mattress from being punctured or if it's being stored for a while, it'll protect it better from outside forces. Mattress boxes come in many sizes from cribs to twin to king-size.
