Holiday Food Gifts: Recipes & Wrapping Ideas Featuring Tins

Use versatile metal tins in all shapes -- from buckets to boxes -- to present delicious food gifts to family and friends for Christmas.

Sticker-Topped Tin for Sweets

With a sticker-topped lid and a ribbon-wrapped base, a plain tin gets decked out for the holidays.

1. Adhere a die-cut scrapbooking sticker to the top of a tin�s lid. Add a magnetic clip with a holiday card attached.

2. Using fabric glue, attach a ribbon around the base of the tin and let it dry.

3. Cut a circle of parchment paper or waxed paper to fit inside the tin. Fill the tin with treats (we used baklava) and cover. See the next slide for a materials list.
