So we can only fill the tin with Industrial Chic supplies? Or a comboe of those and other items from the list?

Fill the tin with items that reflect the styles of Tim Holtz and Industrial Chic. It doesn't have to be from either of these lines of products, but should reflect similar tastes.

I'm very new to steampunk/industrial chic & am kind of stumped with decorating the tin....can you explain further? Thanks.
