Gearhead Mom

I am a toy gearhead. I am a mom. Therefore, I am Gearhead Mom. I review the good, the bad and the (often) ugly in the world of baby and childhood gear.

Crafty Cookie Tins

Posted by Missy W. @ 1:07 PM

Crafty Cookie Tins

My friend Micky is wicked crafty. At last year’s school auction, she donated some of her off-the-hook cookies. The mom who won them figured they’d just be delivered under some foil, but Micky got her craft on and went a few steps further. She got clear paint cans at the Container Store*, lined them with some beautiful paper and Bob’s your uncle, you have one super cute cookie delivery system.

*I can’t find the paint cans online at the Container Store, so here there are over at Stampendous. I think Paper Source has a very beautiful selection of decorative papers.

More pictures after the jump.

Go on now, go get crafty!
