This is for the Simon Says Stamp and show some metal challenge.
I am so thrilled I came up with an upcycled useful item. I used an Altoid tin, sanded it off, and made it into a pretty sewing kit. I have this wrapping paper that has print on top of foil and when sanded a little it makes a wonderful base for stamping. The image inside the kit is stamped on that paper. I think it looks like a old tin print photo.
Yes this art is on and in metal with a sweet metal heart accent. Just looking at this will make it more fun to get that needle and thread out for mending!

Love the tin! Thanks for joining the challenge at Simon Says Stamp & Show.
This is really cool. I have a little sewing kit in an old Sucrets tin. I wonder if I should alter it. Hmmm. Now you have me thinking about ANOTHER project. LOL
Nice sewing kit! It is a wonderful work of art and yes, it would make mending a little more enjoyable! LOL
Barb - thanks for stopping by the Honeysuckles - you are entered in the give away!
Hello Barb,

I used to keep a mini sewing kit in my desk at the office...wish I'd thought of one as pretty as this one, makes mending more enjoyable!
