Altoid Tins

Yesterday I tried putting my cell phone in an altoid tin. It fit perfectly and I felt like it would protect my phone. When I took the phone out it was looking for service. I'm guessing that my phone could not find service inside of the tin. I guess it will not work for a phone holder unless the phone is turned off anyway.

I looked online and saw that people have made all kinds of things out of altoid boxes. The two I liked the best were little shrines and a watercolor box. They also had emergency kits and little electronic gadgets with all the wires and batteries inside.
