Something Old, Something Altered, Something New !!!

Today I'm posting another altered project.  This one is a simple plastic container that was used for snack mix.  Well, I  took it  and made it into a special snack container for my hubby.  He absolutely loves the mix "Nuts n Bolts".  It's one I make a lot for gifts each Christmas.  But for Father's Day this year, I thought I'd fix up a special container just for him.  Below are the pictures from beginning to end.

I created this using stash.  The container is recycled.  
Recipe:   3 coordinating papers
                  2-3 coordinating ribbons
                    brads that look like screws (I clipped the backs off so they would lie flat on the curved surface of  the container.
                       press on letters
                        3 different sizes of permanent tape.
