I love recycling things and save all sorts of containers and things, usually for my son to make things with and I almost threw out my contact lens box thinking it is far too small to do anything with and then remembered I need something to keep my buttons in. Unfortunately it was too small to fit a whole stamped image on but Tilda's chubby little face fits perfectly. Yes this is the only Tilda I own at the moment LOL (hopefully to soon be rectified) but I love this one so much as my baby girl's hair curls up round her ears just like Tilda's. I made the flowers out of the same paper and added a magnetic clasp as the slot closure it already had was too hard to open once I'd covered the box.
The box before it was decorated...
Not bad for a piece of rubbish!
