This is something I recently shared at A Creative Cookie. If you missed how to create a cool little travel case for your earrings made out of baby wipes lids, then here it is again!
Here's your supply list:
2 snap-type baby wipes lids (mine are from Costco's Kirtland brand)
Window screen (I had some left over from my spooky Halloween screens)
E6000
Mod Podge
Brush
Paper or Fabric
Scissors
1--Cut piece of window screen to fit between the "bottom" parts of the two lids
2--Cut paper or fabric to cover the two lids (or "tops") I used some scrap paper first to get the right shape, then traced it on the paper I actually wanted to use.
3--Using Mod Podge, glue the paper down onto the lids. Cover the paper with Mod Podge too. Let dry.
4--Place screen on one bottom, squeeze E6000 around the edge and push the other bottom down on it. Lay the whole thing on the table with a couple of heavy books on it until it dries completely.
I have also shown how to make earrings like the one in my case.
