I bought some of those cute little band-aid tins but now I'm not sure what to use them for. Anyone have any cute ideas for them?? I thought they would be fun to alter but now I'm not sure what to put in them. Thanks for any help!

I have done one where i decorated the outside with paper and some ribbon and some flowers, and i made small cards that i put inside it and gave it to my girlfriend. She loved it! I think i made about 8 cards. Sorry, i don't have a pic...
I didn't know they still made bandaid tins; I thought they all came in paper boxes nowadays. But You could do the same as suggested above with an altoids box.

Ideas for Band aid tins: Gift Cards, Sewing kits, Candy, Rolled Quater's for Laundry, Use them for Shower Gifts.
Hostess Gifts filled with goodies. Crayons for your little ones.
A small First Aid Tin. Use it as a Bank for your Child or Stamping money.
I made one not too long ago for my dad who was sick. I put some cough drops, tylenol, a couple of tea bags and one of those small travel packs of kleenex in it. -- They're great for mini-care packages!
Last year when school started I covered some with Palette reinkers and alcohol, then stamped with a school theme. Filled them with Tootsie Rolls and added a tag with a little note. Gave the to DDs' teachers as gifts to start the year.
It makes me want to scrapbook, and I don't scrapbook. I think I could do this though...
This is a GREAT idea! My son comes home from his honeymoon tonight, it makes me want to make a box for them and chip squares to put pictures of their honeymoon in! It would be great sitting on their desks at work!
Did this come witht he handle on it already? I have not seen them like this before.
Yes. They are by Provo Craft and can be purchased from many on-line stores like Eclectic Paperie, CreativExpress, Inky Antics. Lately, I've seen gals adding little tags with the old link ball key chains. Very, very cute!

Oriental Trading Company (online) sells white ones fairly cheap!
If you have friends that love the bella stamps.. I stamped a bunch of images and put them inside the boxes and send them out.. they loved it.. I have made so many of these tins using a lot of the designer paper.. so easy...
