I went out to the mail today and I got a package!!  It was from Ricki (Simpler1773) She sent me an old small round tin - so cool. Also some wonderful handmade soap that is really made from purified recycled cooking oil from a local restaurant near her. It smells wonderful. It was wrapped up with a old pink and beige scalloped ribbon. This just made my day - I just finished working 8 days straight and this is the only day I get off before I go back to work tomorrow - it just brightened my day. Thank you so muck Ricki - it was just so thoughtful. I wanted to post a photo but can't find DH's digital camera.

Came home today and what did I find - another package. This one from Janice Hall "Miss Bee Haven". Inside were some wonderful tins. A scotch tape tin, white Colverine brand Salve,Cleansing cream from Max Factor (which is cool cause it says Hollywood California), a small Tabcin tin (for colds and hay fever) and my favorite a small,looks like a lipstick tube, Tums tin in pale green.
Already the scotch tape tin is up on my cabinet with the tin from Ricki and some of my other tins - Virginia cigarettes, etc.
The others I will keep safe with my boyscout first aid tin until we re-model the bathroom and then they will be proudly displayed in there on my grandmother's old jelly cupboard.
These are just wonderful - both you girls are great!!!!
Again, tried to take pictures but DH has the camera - ugh!!!!
I will try to get my hands on it and post pictures this weekend.
I can't begin to tell you what a wonderful surprise these both were.
Thank you so much.

I'm glad you like the tiny tins, Anne. And I'm glad they arrived safe and sound. Your collection sounds like fun! I'd love to see a photo of all your tins, sometime. :)
