This would make a perfect little memory box. I have a sister who passed away quite young and I could add a picture of her along with some memorabilia, make three, one for me and my other two sisters. Thanks for the idea and for sharing it with us.
that is a wonderful idea, Lee! 🤗
I was thinking the same thing. My mom passed away this past year. We all wore clothes she made for us. I see her photo in the frame .
Vindication at last! I *knew* there was a good reason for keeping all those tins, beyond "they'll come in handy one day..." Thank you!
Tins ca be used for so much. I use mine (even undecorated) for storage of anything small.
Cheesecloth....cleaning out the bathroom cabinets and started to throw out an old open package of sterile gauze. Took a quick look & realized that I could use it instead of buying a yard of cheesecloth. It's not as tightly woven, but so far it is working on my simple projects. Love that I discovered your channel.
Whew, I’m so glad you finally heard me hollering “buttons, add some buttons”
I totally did...thought I heard something about chocolate, too...but, could've been hearing things! 🍫😏😄
Your hands are so beautifully expressive. I love watching your videos for the commentary and your hands!
I'm a retired RN, and I have an old medical dictionary that's about 5" tall and lots of other medical ephemera. I am envisioning making one these with doctor's orders on the clipboard, etc. You've had a hand in creating monsters looking all over for little ephemera to put in little time and boxes.
Love all your projects, but love your personality more. It's a double treat. You are a hoot and I love all you do.
Nik that is just darling and ur valance or curtain is just the crowning touch. I am making one for sure. Thanks for the instructions.❤
So glad you took a break so I could see this neat idea and process you've come up with!!!!!! Oh, my gosh!!!!! I love watching your videos and listening to you talk us through it all!!!!!!! Keep up the GREAT work!!!!!!
one thing I love; apply black paint like you did, then splatter it with rubbing alcohol. it looks amazing
It's always so much fun to watch you Nik. You are so cute and talented!
You are hilarious and you're so clever..this was so much fun to watch!!! Thank you!! xo
Yes, yes! We DO share that same aunt! I fall in love with all of your projects. This tin is precious. 💕 I love your second set of words: “As you rip so will you sew.” (Paraphrased, I think.) Those scissors look 3D. Awesome job!!!You crack me up!!! Your sense of humor reminds me so much of how I speak when I’m “in my happy zone” teaching my students grammar. Man, I will be glad when I can get back in the classroom! Everyone needs that one odd person whom you can’t help but learn from. (Yes, I did end this sentence with a preposition, but it’s all fine “bc I’m a professional.” ) Thank you so much for sharing your project time with us!!! I love it!!! 😎💕💖
Every time I end a sentence in a preposition, I think that there are ppl out there who are tsk-ing me 😄 Unfortunately, I type how I speak and that is NEVER a good thing! Imagine a squirrel dodging 8 lanes of busy traffic 🤭
Nik the Booksmith, they shouldn’t tsk you. (I was tsking myself in jest.) Once I mention teaching English, I feel compelled to check my writing in case a rude person takes it upon him- or herself to “correct” me. (Most of the time, they are incorrect.) You are very popular, so my odds of being corrected by another Booksmith fan are greatly increased. 😉 My praise for your speaking style is genuine, and I genuinely believe my similar fun way of talking out fun grammar lessons is a reason my students’ standardized test scores increase the year they learned from their “odd” teacher: The info is so entertaining: How can they forget? 😉 You are an entertaining, effective teacher. How can I not enjoy your videos? I love them, and I come away having learned a lot, even if I don’t realize how well until later. 🤗💕
I have dozens of these tins (small, medium, large) and now I know what I am going to do with them. Love your thought process.
She really appealed to me because my mother was a nurse and I could put a tiny picture of my mother inside of one of those and it would be wonderful I love this project I am that great grandma I am not great
I love listening to you!!! Your thought process, and then you crack me up!!! This little tin is so very cute!!! I have a couple of tins I have saved for quite awhile, now I know why!!! Lol!!! Thank you for the great idea, I think it will be a lot of fun to do and I love little things too!!! Hugs💗👵
Your imagination is so cool nik...... I’ve seen these done but love your style.....
This is adorable. I love your sense of humor, you make watching the video very enjoyable.
Love the little tins..and your decor! Thank you for showing the how to...
So glade i found you.you are so funny,and i love you your little Shadowbox.Looking forward to seeing more. Thank you.
Was simply loving it, but then you went ahead and added that amazing photo to the outer lid. Now, I'm melting. Just too perfect.
These are so sweet like you said " what a nice gift for someone". And to use up all the bits and odd leftovers is smart thinking. TFS!
Absolutely fun to watch. Thank you for sharing. You make such beautiful things. You inspire me. Cheers!
A wonderfully cute project that inspires many ideas. Thank you.
That is excellent, looks amazing. Thank you for sharing
I have box full of those tins. I can't wait to make some of these!
OOOH! It is sooo CUTE!!! And I LOOVE your thinking process and chitchat!
Cute! Two things I would like to suggest adding. Through one of the buttons add some knotted thread. I would also add something behind the clipboard… It looks kind of bare back there!
Love this little shadow box Nik. Fantastic idea! tyfs!

I love that idea! I have a lot of little photos like you used of my mom and dad, that were taken in the 30's and 40's. I think I will make one and use one of those photos. :)
I never thought that I would like this. BUT I LOVE IT!!!
I love your channel, so I've been catching up on some videos I've missed. This shadow box idea is wonderful and YES, my Christmas list for this year is done! Tfs!!

Nik this was a super fun tutorial. I've been dieing to see this done!
Adorable! I will definitely be making my own. Thanks for sharing this. You make me laugh, you are so funny! Love from Denmark :)
Such a fun little project ;) so so cute! Love it 😍
So very cool!!
Gonna play this again while I’m crafting so it’s like we’re FaceTime whilst we’re doing our own thing
They say a change is as good as a rest. Nice what you can do in between projects. We buy 12 full Altoids fine at a time from Amazon. Peppermint aids concentration. That's my excuse. Love your videos. Thanks from Wales.
Wowzeees!!! This was sooo cool!!! I love this video, can't wait to try one for my mama. Thank you so much, you're an angel for sharing. You've got wings baby!!☺😉☺
hahaha that made me giggle, thanks Candice 😄
SO CUTE! I have a bazillion Altoid tins! Winter of the Squirrel!
You are cracking me up!! 😂😂😂😂😂 so pretty loved the tin! 😂😂💕💕👍👍
Love this Nik, its sew cute.... lol... great job. Regards Susanna ❤
super cute!!
Love it!! 🌟you always has great ideas ~
Yes, it’s so adorable and cute !!! Oh Nik, before I get a change to get one thing done you have me wanting to do something else 😘. Ok, have a few tins to play with. Also I love old cigar boxes and want to use them as a shadow box . Thanks a bunch Nik, so much fun with you 👍🏻 !!!
Fabulous idea, Shirley!!
love this! will make one soon!!!!
Super cute.
Something else on my to do list. It is too frickin cute😊❤️
Hi Nik. I have altitude this all over the place. Glad to hear I can wipe them with paint thinner. This little tin is very cute. I love your idea of using what you have. Although I did just buy a bunch of buttons at the thrift store, along with four lace style curtains (yes, to tear up), old Latin dictionary..... Hugs kay
That is so stinking cute! BTW.....you are hilarious!
That's very cute!!!
How cute this idea is❣️❣️🤩🎗
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing:)
Love it!!
I just love this tin sew much!!! I love all the tiny details. Miniatures jus make me smile so much because of all the tiny and thoughtful details!! I do have one suggestion, but since you are the artful mastermind, and I have not even graduated to become a lowly apprentice yet. your thoughts and ideas are so much better than mine: a piece of folded or rolled muslin or a muslin strip tied in the top of the clipboard. Thanks so much for sharing. I have so much ephemera and bits and odd pieces from my two grandmothers and my mama (my BFF) who all passed within 5 months of each other in 2014. I have tons of tins. this may be a great way to display those little odd pieces together! Thanks for the inspiration, as always!!! And I am very much "Squirrel", too!!!!!
So cute! TFS!❤️
I love this idea. I only have big tins! This is gonna be fun! Thanks! :)
I love the idea, I personally wouldnt have cut the dictionary though. Thanks for the great ideas!
Love this thing
Amazon sells them in batches too. One can get the 'altioids' shape and size and even the smalls size ones. Also, round or square shapes can be had too.
STOP IT! Now I have to run out to buy lots of tins to make a dish cupboard or a linen closet or a bookcase with mini books or a toy chest or a doll collection or a curtained window or a gate with flowers or...or...or. Oh my. I have to make them ALL! I can’t stop thinking of ideas! Oh, dear. I love miniatures.
right?! me too =) thanks, Jeanne!
Love minis, and love telling a story in a tiny box ...
Sooooo stinkin cute! 😍
so cute!!
Love it!! On my to do list shortly. TfS, Laurie
So cute! It 12:00 a.m. and I am making little clipboards. Good thing it is freezing out with slick roads, or I probably be heading into town to buy Altoids!
Soooo cute ! Also realizing I do have a tin box like that at home (well, it's painted in pink in the outside, got it with very cheap earrings years ago but whatever, a little bit of acetone would probably solve this issue). Another thing I want to try my hand at, now!
This is so sweet...i love it..tfs!♡♡
You have artistically chosen a button with 2 holes and one with 3. It is aesthetically pleasing to have odd numbers.
I find myself talking back to you and pointing where you need to put things!! I agree with you and say.....YEAH, that's it!!!
oh, so it was you! 😄
“...Old n’ worn n’ used and you know... story of my life here...
I feel ya haha 🙂
My friends call me squirrel also lol....love this so much
Hey Nik! Happy 2018. So fun to watch your creative process. Truly enjoyed this video.
Love it!
Love this little shadow box! Really been missing you! Thought I was gonna have to "come over" to see if you could come out to play!! hehehe
hahahaha! oh I remember those days..."Not until you finish cleaning your room!!" 😄
You are fantabulous
so fun!
Adorable
Thanks ❤
I have those tins. 5 of them!! i don't know why, maybe because they were 50 cents at Tuesday Morning! Now I know what to do with 1 of them!!! This is perfect Nik!!!! Love love love this cute cute project!!! Seriously, I am that nurse who loves to sew!!!!! ♥
Thank you, Lisa!
Cute!
It would be fun to make an accordion pull out for multiple pictures.
