Tote your lunch in an embellished tin box. All you need is a few sheets of scrapbook paper, pages ripped from magazines or other decorative paper to start. Then, by applying a little decoupage medium, you'll be able to create a permanent collage on your lunch box tin.

Instructions

    • 1

      Gather pieces of scrapbook paper and begin arranging them on the lunch box's cover.

    • 2

      Begin adding other paper cutouts in a collage-like fashion to get an idea of where things will go when you eventually decoupage the tin. Once you're done arranging your paper, set your collage aside.

    • 3

      Dip a sponge paint brush into Mod Podge. Brush it across the tin box.

    • 4

      Place your background papers or images on top of the Mod Podge-covered lunch box tin.

    • 5

      Lightly coat the reverse sides of paper cutouts with Mod Podge. Arrange them according to your initial design plan.

    • 6

      Gently brush Mod Podge across your collage. Make sure you brush in the same direction to avoid a mess of horizontal and vertical streaks.

    • 7

      Set your decoupaged lunch box tin aside to dry.
