Shakyshaky Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Does anyone know where to find or instuctions to make christmas cookie tins? I would prefer metal but paper will do. I am also not a stranger to soldering if need be. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Have you had a look at Angie Scarr's site? She might have those tins or something that might work for you. http://www.angiescarr.co.uk/angie/recommend.htm Mini-hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuttiwebgal Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 how about miniature Popcorn tins? my firnd and I exchange popcorn tins with puzzles on them at Christmas and than spend all night putting them together on New Years eve. I would like to make her a card scene depicting our long standing New yrs celebration. our kids play board games and dance in the dinningroom we had 7 kids between us. no Tv but for watching the ball drop. I would really like to make or find a mini popcorn tin to put in the card. nutti :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 This sounds like an interesting puzzle. I make food tins by cutting 1/4" diamemter dowels a hair longer than the label printies on Jim Collins' site & spray paint them an aluminum color. To be in scale, what about using doubled heavyduty foil, or the foil from one of the disposable baking/ roasting pans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatColorado Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I have a printable for paper cookie tins, you could use one as a pattern to trace onto tin sheeting. It might work. This place sells mini cookie tins: Tins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peggi Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Or a prescription bottle? Cut to the appropriate height? Some of our prescriptions even come in a pretty blue bottle so you could just cover the top. Peggi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
