Thrifting Time - Vintage Kitchen Canisters and Tins

This weeks thrifty vintage finds are all kitchen related... I love old vintage canisters and tins, to me they are kind of like works of art!.


I think these guys are a bit rusty for edible items but I though they could be great in the laundry!
$8 for the pair - thrift store




Pretty sure this Weet Bix tin is a revived design released as a limited edition not so long ago 
$5, Antique Center.



$3 thrift store buy.. such a cute little tin!

Have a great day!
