Recycling a tea bag box as gift box

2»

Comments

  • Just finished a box of well-known brand of herbal teas. It could make a good gift box. Question is, what sort of paints can I use on it? Will normal poster paint do, or does it need something thicker?
    TIA

    Sorry, but this topic made me laugh realising that the only thing I've recycled my herbal tea boxes into lately is as coffins for small rodents... :o
    If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor...

    ethical internments - good recycling!! I'd like a cardboard coffin too , but will have to be slightly bigger than a teabag box! :D
    ... don't throw the string away. You always need string! :D
