Not sure which category these tins would come under but I have quite a collection of old tins. I especially love old tea tins and here are a couple of them.
Are they treasures, trinkets or trash? I suppose once the tea has been used the tins should become trash but I just keep them.
Beautiful shot. Could be a triple, clearly all 3 depending on the viewer. I think they are definitely worth keeping and they could go on to contain other treasures.
Definitely worth keeping- if just for the artistic way they're decorated. I call mine trinkets- I have just a few but my sister is an avid collector of them.
@casablanca Thanks. As I said above I do have a few collections, but I tend to stop after I have a few then move on to another collection including piggy banks, toy cars, bottles, etc the only thing I am obsessive about and I don't think I will ever stop collecting are books. ha ha.
\ @pcoulson I can't do without my cup of tea.
@cruiser Yes I do have somewhere to display them, usually on top of the bookcases along with a collection of piggy banks.
Reminds me on one that get famous in our country and made it to the dicionairy.. : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droste_effect
I'd love to see these in colour when February is over Babs.
