Hello, friends. I had some fun this weekend painting tin molds and altering them into little Valentine treat baskets. This one was painted cadmium red on the outside and antique white inside. The edges were glued and dipped in German glass glitter. I punch two small holes with a nail and ran some wire through for a whimsical handle. The ends were just wrapped around a small pencil and trimmed. The best part though was filling it with goodies from my stash. I'd love to share this little Valentine with one of you....who knows, maybe I'll even make another one filled with surprises and give away two! After all...
I have one more left and the husband says this is WAY too small for the bag of peanut butter M&Ms he's hoping for. Maybe I should alter a pie plate or loaf pan for him to hold all that chocolate? lol Leave me a comment below to enter this little giveaway. If you don't have a blog, please leave me your email so that I can contact you if you should win! I will announce the winners next Sunday. Hope you had a great weekend! xoxo
Oh throw my name in the hat! It is so cute, and you would not even have to ship it if I won!

P.S. I wanted to tell you my girlfriend Loved the little Heart Stone Book!!! Did you ever find one???
If he's anything like my DH I find men prefer buckets and tubs. A lovely pail would probably be best for his PB treats! But women know jewelery and pretty stuff can fit quite nicely in pretty shiny little containers like your sweet little decorated tins. :D They are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this fun idea. :)
Vickie - What a cute and clever idea! I would love to win your sweet little Valentine inspired giveaway.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to win!
