OLD TIN LOVE






LOVE DAY NUMBER 9
Morning, wow!!!! some places are getting hit with that snow storm East of us and into the States, hope you stay safe and warm......Here we are enjoying some milder weather, go figure............                                               Day 9 of Dear Cindi`s Whole Lotta Love.......  Another love of mine are the old advertising tins.......they were the first old treasures I started to collect, was so much fun looking for these old beauties of yesteryear..............I remember as a child  the tin of Squirrel Peanut Butter, yum yum and the tin of Purity  Strawberry Jam, oh those were the days, I was lucky enough to come across both and buy them.........also Corn Syrup in a tin and Mom`s baking tin of Blue Ribbon Baking Powder, I knew when that little tin was out on the counter, something good was going to happen...........Such wonderful graphics on these tins...........I enjoy looking at them all the time, Cam built me a long shelf above the doors leading into the porch from the kitchen so I am able to enjoy them all the time..................Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, and keep cozy those of you in the path of the storm, Blessings Francine.

  14. Hi Francine, I'm swimming in a sea of white! You have acquired so many wonderful collections, I have enjoyed seeing them all. I just love that tin of peanut butter with the squirrel on it, precious! I have a thing for squirrels... and speaking of squirrels, I am going to go squirrely if I don't get out into the real world soon!!!Hugs from snowy Maine, Julie.
