I’ve been on an Altoids kick lately, which means I have a few tins kicking around.
My daughter and I were looking for something to do together this past Friday, so we made mini dolls out of a clothespins and had planned to make them a bed out of the Altoids tin… but she didn’t fit!
As my son was playing Legos we discovered the tin was a perfect place for Lego People storage, so he’s been using it that!
I decided to check out my favorite go to resource for crafts, Pinterest, to see what others have created out of Altoid tins. I found some pretty cool stuff!
Since our doll didn’t fit, maybe I should make a couple of these freakin’ adorable rodents from mmmcrafts!
The Crafting Chicks came up with a number of uses for an Altoids Tin at school, including using it to hold lunch money.
Display your business cards by upcycling an Altoids tin like adelynSTONE did.
Using the same idea, you could easily create a business card holder for your purse!
We use Tooth Fairy Pouches in this house, but I absolutely LOVE this Toothfairy Trade Tin by Pink Cat Studio. How fun to leave a tooth sitting in this for the Toothfairy to discover!
