Greeting Card Organizer Tin

I gave my aunt her anniversary gift last night, so now I can share what I spent all day on Monday: an altered purse tin. I got the tin from Oriental Trading Company and converted it into a greeting card organizer. My aunt loves to send people cards, so I thought this would be perfect. She loved it! Now I can't wait to make one for myself. :)

Here are some pics. Click to enlarge.

  6. It's adorable, Heather! I love how everything is coordinated. I've made several of these tins for gifts and they are always appreciated! And you can give your aunt more cards as future gifts to keep her tin stocked!
