Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
Over at the blog Between Cupcakes and Tea the two crafters Benice and Elna really know pretty crafting. Read how to decorate recycled mint tins. And I just had to share there great logo that is atop their blog. Isn’t that a cool idea to use a thimble as a tassel topper?
I love vintage matchbooks and their graphics, they are such a cool little bit of history. Even the concept of a matchbook is dated as there isn’t smoking in public places. So repurposing the packaging format to hold all sorts of tiny things is such a great idea. Pop on over to the blog Reading My Tea Leaves to see all sorts of things you can package in a matchbook and how to make them.
What an utterly beautiful altered tin. So inspiring and love the added jewellery detail.
