    This is just simply beautiful. Great idea for Christmas. I bet you could even line the tin and put some dividers in, if you wanted to give someone an assortment of stuff. Or even make them a sewing box out of it.

    Clever idea. I like the pattern for the Noel word using the ornament for the O! I save tins and use them for sewing supplies. My husband thinks I have way too many!

    Gosh! I wish I had thought of that . I went out and bought new tins while I had a drawer full of used tins in perfect condition. Well, there's always next year. What a beautiful idea. Thanks for sharing.

    What a fantastic idea, and I think a metal tin would be much sturdier than a plastic container.
