Looks lovely SandieB. I saw one of those really old tins in my charity shop yesterday but wasn't sure what I'd do with it! Those look lovely though.

None of the tins is really old. I think the oldest is the red tin I bought at Vienna airport, full of lovely cocoa. Top left is a used olive oil can and the others held Amaretti biscuits. Top right red one is M&S one I had at Christmas from my niece, full of fudge! (Although not any longer).0

I've used the leaves with PVA, both sides, wait until it dries out then just gently wipe clean.
