Vintage Lunchbox Upcycle

Kerri blogs over at Keep Calm and KERRI On. Recently while at an estate sale, she found this vintage metal lunchbox for $3. (Who else remembers these lunch boxes? They were made to last!)

To give the sturdy lunchbox another shot at life, Kerri sanded it down and wrapped the hardware with tape. Then she painted it a bright lipstick red. After adding a silk flower embellishment, Kerri now uses the lunchbox as a purse. It’s beautiful!
