Orange Tin

clr081gayleDesign team member Gayle Page-Robak recycled an octagonal metal tin by decorating it with images from the Orange Things collage set. I love how she used the labels and landscape images from the set on the sides.

    Very nice, Gayle! You ladies always manage to make me hungry, though! This beautiful tin that you’ve made makes me think of having some lovely biscuits (orange flavour, of course!) with a cup of tea! LOL!

  • Kim Rayko says:

    Great tin Gayle! With the nice bright colors,would look wonderful on a kitchen cupboard!

    • Thank you, Kim…you are correct, it would look great on a kitchen cupboard and would not take up too much room. Could be used to hold so many things, really…..more info in the next message on size, etc. Appreciate your comment, Kim!

    I just love this! I wonder where you go the tin, Gayle? I’d love to make one similar to it. The orange looks great!

    • Hi Sally…I just responded to Kim (above) about being able to keep it on a kitchen counter…it would be perfect for that. The Tin is one of a number I traded with a girlfriend for a while back. I don’t know where she got them but they are a lovely ‘strong’ tin (not at al flimsy), and so well enamelled, and edged beautifully. They are 5 inches wide and are chocolate tins. There is a beautiful insignia of an American Eagle over the brand logo (all embossed into the metal) Ghirardelli (from San Francisco, established 1852)…hope this helps. I love these tins. Hugs, Gayle.

    Such yummy colors Gayle! Now I need some orange cookies inside. Thanks for the ideas. Sally

    • Don’t think I have eaten orange cookies, but they sound good…don’t tempt me tho….this sized tin would make a great gift sized container for baked goods tho…I love the sheet that I used to create it…it is such a vibrant and cheery color….made me feel good making it.

    All this talk of cookies is killing me. Somebody, please pass me the Orange Milanos…
