A collection of random tins can look like they belong together with a simple transformation of spray paint. Thrift stores are always full of tins!
I made sure all my tins had gold inside.
Quick tags using scrapbook paper and blank wood tags, tied on with twine.

    Did you use a sealer over the paint? I noticed you painted right up to the top edge. Does removing the lid rub the paint off that area?

    I love your tins. I have so many old Christmas tins that I was getting ready to give away but now I'm going to repurpose them. Thanks for sharing your idea.

    I love old tins! They can be used for literally everything. With a coat of paint and some imagination, they make fabulous rustic centrepieces for a wedding reception :)
