Reusing mint tins is nothing new; however, this is a crafty, easy, and fun trend that has become popular on social media sites like Pinterest, Instagram, and TikTok. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8MCw4xt/

Make your own personalized to-go tin with your special possessions by incorporating collaging, organization, and creativity!

It can be as simple as gathering your small, important possessions or as elaborate as lining the tin walls with fabric, magazine cutouts, stickers, and photos! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8MX2V8B/

Ideas of what to include!

  • Small mirror and magnets
  • Photos of your significant other, friends, pets, or favorite celebrity 
  • Miniature makeup and perfume samples
  • Hair accessories like clips, bobby pins, elastics
  • Jewelry
  • Headphones, charger
  • Gum, bandaids, hand sanitizer
  • Small toys, crystals, trinkets
  • Cash and cards
  • And more!

The goal is just to make it cute, decorated, and personalized!
