Step-by-step tutorial
Step 1
We hit the recycle box for this craft and collected all the little mint tins we have been saving. Emma pulled out a few favorite felt colors, and we got lucky and found some hairy monster fabric!
Step 2
Emma got to work adding felt to the top. She decided to make some sort of colorful horse on her first tin. It would be fun to do a whole set of farm animal tins or fun monsters.
Step 3
You could use felt pieces for the entire face or grab some trinkets like buttons and yarn to make the face features.
Step 4
Two eyes were all she felt were necessary on the hairy monster tin! I think so too. It came out perfectly monsterish!
Final result!
When they were all dry, Emma decided what each tin would hold and filled them up with all of her tiny collections. What will your child hold in their special treasure tin?
