Pick a picture of your liking, I chose one off of an ad in my magazine. Then position and trace the top of your Altoids tin on top of your picture and cut out. Don't worry about it being perfect.
Put your picture aside and get your Mod Podge and a good brush. Take your Altoids tin and brush on a layer of Mod Podge. Let it sit for a few minutes.
Next, carefully place your picture on your tin matching the sides up. Press down firmly to make sure it's really on their. Let it sit for about five minutes or so, if the sides go over more than you'd like take your scissors and cut around carefully.
Brush on another layer of Mod Podge on top of your picture. Make sure it is evenly coated and not to thick. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to dry a little bit.
Choose a little charm or bead or something cute that will go with your picture. I chose a button and cut off the back so it would be flat. Take your little pendent and apply a thick layer of Mod Podge. Stick it on to you tin, if access glue comes out just rub it away with your brush.
Let that sit for about 15 minuets.
All Done! you can put anything in it like a little sewing kit or something you always lose in your purse because it to tiny like bobby pins! Enjoy!!
