Made two lunch tins to try my hand at them. The first I used Modge Podge (blue one), but was unhappy with the brush marks. On the second one I used my Xyron and didn't coat the paper with any topcoat. Much easier! I had trouble with the top, painted the blue one okay, but the funky flowered one wouldn't cooperate. I finally learned how to cut the paper to fit around the handles! (Exacto knife). I just love boxes and containers!!

This is one of my favorite tins on SCS. I have to make one for a silent auction, I think I'll case many of the elements you used. I'm sure it will raise a lot of money for a great cause! Thanks SO much for sharing!
