Description:

This is for the tiniest tin you can find filled with tiny treasures. The smaller the tin, the better, think lip balm or mint tins. Tin can be new or used (as long as it is clean and not damaged). It doesn't need to be decorated as tiny tins are usually interesting anyway and I'm sure your partner would be curious as to what came in it, if it is recycled. As for the contents, they can be made, bought, found, new or old, just not dirty or broken. It must contain either a coin or postage stamp from your country. Apart from that the other treasures are sender's choice. I will just put a limit on only one of each type of item, so there is a bit of variety. Here are a few suggestions, but I'm sure you will all have other great treasure ideas. Crystal, antique button, fossil, shell, jewel (not precious), gemstone, charm (you could check your partners's profile for this), pearl bead, beach glass, trinket, locket, toy or ornament. Start collecting over Christmas and if this goes well, I will have a few more tiny tin swaps perhaps with themes like vintage, new or natural. No recent ones or threes unless you pm me and can explain. Must have at least 5 rated type 3 swaps.

In the past I have found beautiful tiny tins at Cost Plus..also thrift stores are always a sure bet. Sounds like a great swap. Can't wait to get my little tin started. Thanks for such a fun swap :)

I hope you will have more of this type of swap as I have not yet complete enough to join this one.
