Hi Ani. I soaked them in warm soapy water (i have 8 boxes) and then scraped the paper off with finger nails and a small kitchen knife.
However, now the next step is to get the glue off. I hear nail polish remover will do it.
and then........ when it's dry, sand with rough paper and wipe off with wet/damp cloth.
and then....... when that's dry, sand with fine paper and brush off with dry paint brush.
and then........ paint the insides.
and then........ when dry, paint the bottom and one side of the lids.
and then....... when dry, pain the other side of the lids and the outsides.
Since I only have tme on the weekend, my big question is............... How many weeks is this going to take?
All the instructions I read make it sound like a quick project, but it obviously isn't.
Thanks, Pam
