Reuse treat tins

As you start your spring cleaning, your likely to run accross some tins that you received full of goodies over the holidays, valentines day etc. Instead of throwing them away, clean them up, lightly sand them, and paint them. Tins make great gift wrapping for homemade items, as well as soft items such as t-shirts. Simply paint and use rustic twine or rafia as ribbon to get the full gift wrap effect. You can choose whatever color suits you needs, pink/blue/yellow/lavender for baby shower gifts, brown/blue/red for Father's day gifts etc, the only limit is your imagination.
