Have you ever bought something that is in a unique container and you just cannot help but re-purpose that container for something else? Sometimes a food container or shoe box is just too unique to throw away! I really love the boxes that tea comes in from Steven Smith, Teamaker because they are sturdy and unique. Instead of throwing them away, I've tried to think of ways to use them in other ways. Recently, for a friend's birthday, I used scrap booking papers to decorate one of these tea boxes. Tari loved it! I don't know how she decided to use her box, but it could be storage for tea sachets, recipes, hair clips, tickets, stickers, receipts, or small keepsakes. Before I wrapped it up for her, I couldn't help but take some pictures so I could have a little "show and tell" with you!
Darling box!
ReplyDeleteClever! Love what you did with the box!
ReplyDeleteNo tea boxes here, though I do have a number of cigar boxes oddly enough. (A brother-in-law smokes cigars.) They're wooden. One should be able to do something with them, though I've not figured it out.
ReplyDeleteYour altered box turned out beautifully.
Fantastic!!! Such a great idea!! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteI love what you have done with this tea box. Steven Smith boxes are beautiful. At one point I called the company that makes them and found they are very expensive to make. Well worth doing something with them.
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love, LOVE, LOVE this!
ReplyDeleteNice job, La Tea Dah. The tea box decorating is so cute! Thanks for sharing. Susan
ReplyDeleteThat is really a lovely re-purposing of your tea box! I keep saving boxes I love. This inspires me to get busy and "pretty" them up!
