I cut the Cosmo Cricket designer paper to fit the top and sides - then sanded the edges of the top to fit closely and sponged everything with So Saffron Ink. I attached the ribbon to the rim with tacky tape. Inside, the bottom is lined with a piece of felt to hook the lures into to hold them secure.
I have about 10 of these empty Altoid tins just waiting for a project like this to come along to get me to use one!!
Thanks for coming by today!
