Hello ...

I have a bunch of plain tins that I purchased for some project a few years ago ... they've been in the "craft/gift" closet for a while now and it's time to find a use for them.

They are 4 1/4" high and 4 1/4" in diameter, and have lids.

I was thinking that I could decorate them somehow and give them to the young children in the family. Fill them with a small gift or edibles.

Any ideas on how I could transform these? Maybe into Santa Heads, Elves, Reindeer ...

Is there any kind of glue besides a hot glue gun that would work to attach things to them?
