    This Altered Altoid Tin houses an accordion fold created from toilet paper rolls. It was original created for the #makerscreativecollab accordion prompt but became a bit too long for video hop. I have created two videos to complete this project. Video 1 - the Making of the Tin and Video 2 - the Making of the Accordion Fold piece. All the supplies used in this video are listed on my blog - you can find that here:

    I have to say this is one of my favorite things! I love that it looks so aged!

      Thank you! I like working with the altoid tins…This is the first time I glued the book in but I think the accordion lent itself well to that application. I’m glad you enjoyed!

    after you'd applied all the layers of paint, and then, especially, once you added the embossing, the cardboard tubes took on the appearance of aged metal. so cool!

      So happy you liked the outcome!! I found the embossing on the decorated to tube gives them a little more substance and a nice little tap when they hit the table--more like metal! I think I use my big shot more for “substance” than “decoration”😉

      You are so welcome! I will get better with the stencil names -- I know them as I am working but I do the voice overs from the house 🤦🏻‍♀️

    I'm excited to see what you "actually do" for the collaboration. It's their loss to not include this project. I recently found a tin from a long-ago purchase of a watch for either my husband or one of our sons. Guess what I'm gonna try? BUT I was able to finish some of my paper crafting projects and therefore February is designated as the month to work on my quilting UFOs so the tin will be later. As always a beautiful work of art.

      Thank you Susan! I have one of the mini tins I need to do something with….The watch tin will be great to work with! I did a completely different concept for the collab, all in black and white with a touch of purple!

      We have a 15 minute time limit for the collab videos and I couldn’t cut this whole project down to 15🤦🏻‍♀️. I have created something totally different for the collab in black and white! I’m not a “flip through” kind of gal…I like the process videos better so I try to keep all mine to an easy formula…here’s what I made…here’s how I made it…and here it is again. 😂. I also like to keep my videos within my own attention span limitations and I’m good for 10-20 minutes then I have to fast forward or move on. Is that too much information 😂😂😂
