Op-shopped Christmas #2

Thrifted tins. For every occassion. Christmas included.



Caption anyone?
Always makes me wonder (and worry) what the photographer was doing to 'make the kiddies smile'!


Usually contains all the chrismas decos' that Claud makes at playcentre out of beads and baked playdough, that I'm going to keep forever.

My personal faves (I have a pair). Cake tins.


Neuschwanstein castle in Bavaria.
I haven't been but it's on our list for next time we have a northern hemisphere christmas.

  1. Hi Max, well there was a caption on the tip of my tongue, that is until you mentioned wondering & worrying & mysteriously it just vanished right out of my head! Great tins! Have a wonderful & fun Christmas with you your little Claud. Much love Catherine x

  2. Love the tins. I reckon the larger girl has just put snow down the smaller girl's knickers! Either that or they are watching a very unusual 'birdie'!

  3. Gorgeous! The smaller girl looks downright startled!! I'd love to go to Neuschwanstein too.

  5. Your fave is mine too. That is one beautiful cake tin. And you have two of them!
    The pic on the first tin would not make the cut these days, that's for sure. That little girl looks terrified, surely not because (as Lakota so delicately put it) she had seen an unusual birdy! Funny girl that Lakota!

    I didn't comment on your last dolls house post Max because I have run out of superlatives!

  6. Fantastic tins! LOVE
    Neuschwanstein Castle is fab, however, King Ludwigs smaller castels were more appealing to me than this mammoth tourist one xx
