Day 3 – Miniature Cookie Tins and Kitchen Minis On Sale!
Filed under Cat's Away... 2015, Collage Sheets, Giveaways, Miniatures, Nichola Battilana, Sale
Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. However, you can see the supply list items from Nichola’s project that are still available on the new site.
It’s day THREE of this week of While the Cat’s Away Giveaways!
And today’s theme is Miniature Cookie Tins!
Oh my! Look at those adorable (tiny!) things at right (by that goddess of tiny things, Nichola Battilana)!
Today’s little foray into cuteness started with the Miniature Square Cookie Tins that Teri Calia brought to my attention. I immediately thought of the need for cookie labels, but both Teri and Nichola have made collage sheets with labels to fit the tins (and their sister Miniature Round Cookie Tins) for all kinds of products:
Absinthe, chocolate, cookies, crackers, jam, a variety of fairy-sized beer labels (yes, Nichola’s collage sheet includes labels to fit more tiny bottles and cans, too), soap, spices, food stuff, motor oil, tea, coffee and canned fruit, veg, treacle and more.
See the ‘We Also Recommend’ section at the bottom of the Little Household Goods Collage Sheet page for all the little dollhouse cans and bottles that Nichola’s collage sheet labels fit.
Check out Nichola’s blog for more info about her Fairy First Aid Kit.
And in honor of the goodies, ALL Miniatures for Kitchen & Sewing are On Sale at 20% off today!
And before I forget: The winner of yesterday’s Chrysnbon Kits Giveaway is Rosemarie Grant! Check your email for info about your prize package!
