Transform a Tic Tac container into a fun and floral paperclip holder

A paperclip is a simple office supply, but that doesn’t mean creating the perfect storage container for these small and essential items that cannot be fun. Add some feminine flair to office organization by turning a Tic Tac container into a floral covered storage box. Small enough to easily move around but large enough to hold plenty of paperclips, a Tic Tac container provides the ideal dimensions for keeping paperclips in one place. It also offers up just enough surface space to get creative.

Choose a floral sheet of scrapbook paper as a chic and stylish covering for a Tic Tac container. While a delicate floral pattern looks lovely, there’s always the option to mix and match patterns for a bold decorative statement. Mod Podge adhesive keeps the paper smoothly secured to the exterior of the Tic Tac container. Once the covering is complete, the Tic Tac container officially takes on new life as a paperclip holder. Place it on an office desk at home or work for a unique way to keep paperclips in order and easy to access.
