@CastinCouchnCatwalk You can buy handles of various shapes and sizes at the craft store. I have a big byte punch that I think would go through light weight metal, you might check them out. You might also be able to use and awl and hammer to punch the holes for the handle as well depending on how thick your tin is. Good luck, Please let me know if you convert it.
quite beautiful - I have always been afraid of doing one of these, but when I calm down and look, there isn't a ton of measuring, and almost any embellishment can cover a booboo or a little distressing with ink. I may have the guts to do this in a couple of days !
@lzbthnn Oh you must try it, it's so easy and as you said all your mistakes can be healed and no one knows but you. You can always holler to me for help, I'm only an email away. Have fun.
helloooo Patti, had to leave a comment after reading your mail. Congrats to you. This altered lunchbox is just adorable. I love all that you've added to it to get a real vintage look to something very new. Hugs and Christmas wishes :-) C
I have a tin and I think it's really pretty. I want to turn it into a lunchbox with a handle, do you know how I can do that?
