This is my entry for the CRAFT Challenge - 'Anything except a card'. I have altered a tin (packaging from a Xmas pressie last year - had a Jamie Oliver mug inside). I have used K&Co Swell Noel papers that I bought in a sale somewhere online after Xmas 2008 and the tin will be a present for me to give this Xmas. I had the idea that I could add items to the tin that co-ordinated as I love the papers so I made/altered some other bits...
So inside the tin I've added a little package of cranberry teabags, a 2010 coaster calendar with a magnet on the back, a post-it note holder and a notebook & pen set.
I bought the little notebook from Tesco a few weeks ago (think they were 2 for £1 at the time). I have added paper to the front of the notebook and also wrapped around the pen. The little packet is cranberry teabags and I have simply added a sleeve of the paper and a flower.
This is a post-it note holder using a coaster and a clippy thing (bought a tub of them from Home Bargains for 99p) and a coaster calendar (calendar tab by Anita's - 99p for 10).
