Marilyn, while I was unable to see the tin (said I was not the owner of the album and needed a password) I would think that it would work. I had actually started a tin last night, (anniversary coming up and wanted to do something for DH)then saw the Challenge posted. Perhaps…
Read the full replyCan anyone tell me if this tin would do for the April monthly challenge. = It housed my Bioflow magnetic bracelet, which really looks like a watch. = That should give you an idea of the size of the tin. It is 5 1/2 inches = long, 2 1/2 inches wide and 3/4 inch deep. It would accommodate a large = size tag book....but is it too big? If it is I will need to look for = something else!

Great M-C, will start planning what I am going to do. You know, when we went to Asda (part of Wal-Mart group) on Friday I bought three dinky buckets with the intention of decorating them to store my Marvy LePlume and Gel Pens. I can maybe do them all at the one time :o) Marilyn
I think it would work! I like the size of it.....

Sounds like I need to go find me an Altoids tin or two. LOL Hmm...get = a couple and send one with DH! He'll eat anything. LOL
That is too funny!!!
Sandy and Deb, I think you two are sisters in the humour you portray of/on your poor ole dh's!!! ROTF!!!!!
OKC Dave
I say go for it. I think it would make a great little scrapbox.
LOL Deb! =20
Thanks Cleo...just wanted to check that there were no specific size issues for altered tins. I already have the seed of a design in my head but will allow it to evolve a little more. Regards,Marilyn
Hey, I can't help it if I live in a 5-ring circus. LOL What do you expect from a DH who collects Transformers, a 6 yr old DD who wants to be a princess..and take Tae Kwan Doe, and a almost-4 yr old DS who sword fights with chopsticks????? I have to scrap to keep my sanity.
ROFL! Well now we know where the Altoids tin stash is....at Sandy's = house!
LOL Deb! That sounds like my kind of house!

I think after all the laundry, cooking, cleaning, money-juggling, and = other mom/wife duties we do, you shouldn't have to buy them. Hey, you = could always send him a bill for doing his laundry. LOL =20
Not in dollars, but in total tins, LOL!
