Mother's Day Tins

Sometimes we just need something quick and easy for Mother's Day!
I decided to try some upcycled tins.

Mother's Day Tins


What you will need:
Empty containers - I used a bread crumb tin and a wilton meringue tin
Decorative wrapping paper or scrapbook paper
Charms or Embellishments
Scissors
Ruler
Tape
Hot Glue


First you will need to figure out the size of your container, either by measuring it or using the wrapper off the container for a pattern.





Next, cut and glue the paper to the container.



Then if you want to add additional paper or trim, cut and glue or tape it to the container also.



Now, for the final touch.  Add any charms or embellishments that you would like.



Finally. fill with, candies, treats, jewelry, flowers or a love note!  The possibilities are endless.



Thanks for stopping by!

  10. Great idea! I was given a darling tin with tea on it that has four compartments and keep looking at it wondering what and how I can reuse it, well now I think I know what I will do. :)
    I'm visiting from my dear Stephanie's party, nice to meet you.

    Joy! Debbie
