OK, if you are reading this, you probably are into crafts somewhat. Surely by now you've experimented with mint tins and such, right? If not, you really need to! There's no set way to do this, but here are some tips:
Sand off the paint, it will help your items stick on better.
You'll need to use a variety of glues because with mixed media, you'll be layering with paper, plastic, wood, metal, etc. You can use a glue stick for paper stuff, e6000 for heavy stuff and hot glue for small things (hot glue won't attach to metal).
I also like to call these pocket shrines.
