Altoid Tin Makeover with Washi Tape for Valentine's Day

This Valentine’s Day craft project brought together three of my loves: upcycling, washi tape, and my curiously strong addiction to Altoids. Over the years I’ve tossed a lot of Altoid tins into the trash, so I started saving them up and have been thinking of ways to reuse them. Pick Your Plum and Consumer Crafts have both recently had fantastic sales on washi tape, so I have been stocking up. A lot.

These sweet, quirky little Valentine tins can be filled with Conversation Hearts or your favorite Valentine’s Day treat.

Upcycled Altoid Tin using Washi Tape for Valentine's Day

Altoid Tin Makeover for Valentine’s Day

Here’s What You’ll Need:

Altoid tin
assortment of washi tape
white acrylic paing and brush

Directions:

Paint the lid of the Altoid tin and allow to dry completely.

Place a strip of washi tape around the base of the tin. The tape will be slightly wider than the base of the tin, so just press and stick the excess onto the bottom of the tin. There is no need to cut it to fit.

Cut or tear pieces of tape, in a variety of designs, that will fit across the top of the lid. Press into place.

Typically, a grasshopper milkshake is a boozy milkshake that combines ice cream, creme de menthe, and creme de cacao together. In the spirit of St Patrick's Day later this month, I whipped up some tasty kid-friendly Grasshopper Milkshakes! This delicious grasshopper shake is made using mint chocolate chip ice cream and crushed grasshopper cookies.

This project couldn’t be any simpler and is so inexpensive to make. I just love making homemade Valentines, and think these will make sweet gifts for a few of my friends.

I would love to see some of your homemade Valentines! Feel free to link them up below.
