"Mint Anyone?"

I was in the mood to embellish so I bought 20 tins of Altoids and gussied them up with paint, sequence and a very thick gloss! I think these will make pretty gifts for all the teachers at school. Once they are dry I will wrap them in cellophane and tie around a pretty red bow. I always like to carry mints in my purse so I may just have to keep one for myself(O:
