A Simple Altered Box

Here's a fun and easy project. You just need a little tin, some pretty paper, a ribbon and a button. You can add other embellishments but I like to keep these simple.

This started out as a Godiva chocolate tin. After you do the fun work, that's eating the candy, you cover the box with some pretty paper and now you have a great little container to use for a gift. Of course you can keep it and stash some stuff in it, but you can put something tiny in it, expensive or inexpensive, great gifts come in little containers.

This box is covered with MFT (My Favorite Things) Summer collection paper, ribbon and button. It only takes a few minutes to make one and it's really adorable. This tin is for the MFT One Click Challenge which is to make a box, the Allsorts Week 16 Challenge to not use stamps, and the Tuesday Taggers challenge Buttons and Bows.

Thanks for taking the time to look. Before you leave remember to click on the pink ribbon.
