Op shop find of the week

Lots of op-ing down the oppy but not much op-taining this week. A bit op-ed out, but op-ful for next week.

Hmm. In the meantime here are some tins I've recently acquired and what I'm using them for...


Ahhh, cute!


Brooch making bits and bobs


Native kiwi plants (my fave)

Containing seeds, of course!

Japanese tea tin

What else in a tin this shape, duh!

Battered and beautiful

Doily project


Another 'kiwi'-ana beaut.

Empty, for now...



                   And, for all the brown pottery lovers who came out of the woodwork last week, this!
                                                    Full of husband gubbins. Not pretty!


                                              'Appy op-ing' to you all this week x

    Very very cool bit and pieces. Are they good seeds in the tin?

    I'm impressed. Pretty storage solutions with pretty things stored inside (with one exception) - I can but dream of such organization...

    I love tins. They are so great to stash bits and bobs that would look messy otherwise. You have some great ones there for sure!
