Craft Day- The Prefect Box for Bobbie Pins

If you need an easy way to store
those loose Bobbie Pins
or tiny rubber bands.
Here is an easy solution.
(A wonderful travel companion)
Make a Pins and Bands Box.
All you need is:
A small Altoids tin, Mod Podge, a small paint brush,
letters and a piece of light weight paper
Start by tearing pieces of paper from the
light weight paper that you have chosen.
Open up your Altoids box. Paint the outside 
of your box with your Mod Podge.
Place a piece of your torn paper onto your
box. Paint some of your Mod Podge on top
of your paper. Place a second piece of paper
 onto your box over lapping the first piece.
Paint some more of your Mod Podge on top.
 Continue layering your paper until you cover 
the outside of both the top and bottom
of your tin.
( Do not cover the inside of the box.)
Don't worry about the pieces of paper
 that hang over the sides. Just fold them back
and add a little more of your Mog Podge.
Let both sides of your tin dry.
Once your tin is dry add your letters.
Place one more coat of Mod Podge onto your 
tin lid and let it dry.
You now have the perfect little case for all 
those little Pins and Bands.
