Creative Upcycled Altoids Tin Ideas
We eat a lot of mints. It might be the best way I get my kids to pass the breath smell test. (Before we talk hygiene, yes, I do make the brush multiple times a day!) Anyways, mints seem to be our solution over gum. Each time we visit a container I truly hate tossing these mint cases away. There are so many creative uses for them and there is no reason they should end up in a landfill… thus this post!
