OMG I have the EXACT Morning Tea tin! Have had it so long I can't even remember where I found it, but I have always LOVED it - prettiest darn tin I've ever seen. Must haul mine out now....
these are all so sweet and nostalgic. esp love the pencil case. would be worried that my lot would trash some of those toys, but i guess they must be hardy if they have lasted this long!
Great finds! I am especially loving that pencil case!
Tin toys are so adorable and classic. They always seem to come in such wonderful colors. I especially love the first two, and that tea tin is beautiful :)
I LOVE tins for putting what-nots in. That must run in the family too!
