Popcorn Tin

 Do you have any popcorn tins around?

If you do, spray paint them and use decals or stickers or decoupage with pictures of you with them, cards, or whatever.  Then fill the tin with homemade treats--hot chocolate mix, corn chex mix, layered jars or containers of cookie mixes or soup ingredients, and even just bags of homemade cookies. Could put rolls of frozen cookie dough in and they can bake them when needed. (with instructions of course)


Can even be a container to wrap a odd present in and can always decorate the tin with a hobby of theirs Cooking items with recipes decoupaged on the sides, garden items, doll with clothes, bottle, homemade blanket, etc..... (see if it stays stored in there--lol)  Maybe if a child into the little cars, small tractors or farm animals could decorate as such and have a storage bin for them.

This is a great idea! Sometimes you just can't find a container large enough for certain gifts and these popcorn tins would be perfect. Happy CIJ!
