We always have "junk"
laying around here at the
shop. Why would we throw away
what we can repurpose into
something new and beautiful?
So, yesterday I took these little
tin boxes we had and decoupaged
old music paper over them, added
a little glitter, and some buttons
viola! Something beautiful, and
just in time to put a little
Christmas gift in.
Here take a look...
First, you will need Mod Podge, a
cheap brush, and some paper.
(I chose vintage music paper, but you can
use whatever you want.)
After the glue dried, I took
our hot glue gun and glued
buttons on the cover, just
to add a little interest and
because it's just cute...
who doesn't love buttons?
Finished! What do you think?
It's the perfect size to fill
with Christmas cookies or candies
and give to a friend...and to
think this could have ended up
in the trash!
This is what it looked like before
in the middle and the finished product.
I hope you think twice before you throw
something away. There is always
another purpose for those
certain pieces of "junk"
~ Enjoy your day, and
have a HAPPY weekend ~
