Step One: Cut a
piece of felt 3 3/4"W x 4 3/4"L and two triangles for the sides. Mine was 3
1/2" at it widest and 1 1/2" deep
Step Two: pin
the triangle in place and stitch triangle to the square (see picture) I used a
blanket stitch but any stitch you want will be fine
Step Three:
separate your Altoid's tin into two pieces, this will make it easier to paint.
Once separated, paint on a coat of primer and let dry according to manufacturers
instructions.
Step Four: Once
the primer is dry, paint on a coat of black spray paint, let dry according to
manufacturers instructions
Step Five: Now
that your paint is dry, take your Mod Podge and your image. With a brush or
sponge, brush on a thin coat of glue and place your image on top. Then another
thin coat on top of your image.
Step Six: Then
Seal with spray varnish clear gloss.
Step Seven:
Reconnect your tin pieces and glue your lining inside with your choice of glue.
I don't recommend super glue.
Step Eight: You
are done. Put your money in it and go!
What else you can make:
Line
only the bottom and make a awesome gift box
Or
leave the lining out and make a cigarette case
