Help With Altoid Style Tins

[mamamia]

I have some plain white "altoid" style tins that I'm looking to use for projects. Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas?

I'm having a creative brain freeze so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Where did you find them? I've never used the tins before, but have been curious !!! You may want to do a search in the gallery for tins for some suggestions.

I found them online at www.clayalley.com - they have all different sizes, shapes and colors. Their prices seemed reasonable and they were extremely fast in shipping.

Check out the gallery. They are really cute to decorate and give as a gift. You can glue a mirror to the inside of the lid and use it like a compact. (If you are a Fan Club Member, you'll be able to see the one MelMel did) Just throw in your lipstick/gloss/chapstick!

Thanks for sharing that website - great variety! I just love tins. My DH loves Altoids and I've been hoarding the tins for a couple of years. Only actually decorated a couple of them so far though. Sometimes I'm more of a collector than a crafter. :oops: One I decorated as a gift box for a necklace and one I did (Altoids gum tin) I did for lip gloss.
