I love a quick and easy craft project using repurposed items. You may remember when I spend the day crafting with my friend, J. and we turned repurposed packaging into containers for gift giving. J. and I had lots of fun using Mod Podge to upcycle some repurposed containers into pretty and frugal gift-giving-worthy containers.
While we were waiting for the craft paint to dry on some of the other projects, we decided to use the Mod Podge on a cute metal container that J. had brought with her.
We cut a piece of decorative paper out to fit the top of the tin lid. We used the Mod Podge Brush Applicator to apply the Glitter Mod Podge.
The top coat of Glitter Mod Podge added a fun sparkle to the otherwise simple paper. I’m charmed by the retro feel to this tin. It would be a sweet little gift filled with candies (pun intended).
I’m a mom of 3, a veteran and military spouse. I’ve moved into 20+ homes all around the world. My passion is helping busy people make the space and time for what’s really important to them.
We love to use Altoid tins as little organizers. This would be a great way to dress them up and personalize them.
Jinx buy me a Coke! I was thinking the same thing… this would be perfect for an Altoid tin.
Susan – You knocked it out of the park as usual. I need to start doing more with Modge Podge… I have some and never seem to use it very often. Thanks for the inspiration.

I love a little glitter on my holiday packages! This is a great way to reuse something and to have fun creating!
