New Use For an Old Altoids Tin

Green, Frugal and Useful!

I’ve heard of people using these tins to put together mini sewing kits, but I thought it would make a good place to quickly drop my straight pins as I remove them from my fabric when it feeds under the presser foot.  I placed a business card style refrigerator magnet in the bottom and voila!  I believe the word for this is “upcycling”.  Green, frugal and useful.

Do you have a clever use for this kind of ”trash”?
