So I purchased a mirror and some contact paper and went home and got to work. I had a stack-em tackle box tucked away not being used, I was all set!
The contact paper says it doesn't stick very good to bumpy surfaces, so I used a little extra strength glue stick to help it along.
I started covering the inside and decided to stop after getting just the bottom covered and a little accent.
Looks cute! I then hot-glued the mirror on to the inside lid.
Now it's time to fill it!
A note: I showed this to my 13 year old son and he grabbed the mirror and ripped it off. So, I'm thinking a stronger glue might be in order. Or...never let him touch my stuff again!
Update: Two strips of sticky velcro works much better than hot glue. Mirror is removable and then stores nicely inside the lid. This converted tackle box holds all my make-up supplies!
Two strips of strong velcro holds it on nicely!
