My elf and countdown find

[Cindasnow]

I am so excited. While traveling to my sister's house my girls and I stopped at a target to use the restroom and stretch our legs. I so excite to find the clearance aisle. While there I spotted a huge round metal tub with handles 75% off. I bought one to put our countdown gifts in. Our elves always arrive on Dec 1 and bring with them our countdown gifts, ( something we started before the elves.) I always struggle with something to put them in but now I have it covered.

I saw them and thought they were great. Wasn't sure what I could use one for but that's a good idea.

I saw them too and I am a sucker for tubs, bins, baskets, etc. I did not buy one though but that is a great use for it!

It is white. I am hoping to decorate it with vinyl and my cricut so the decorations can be removed if I need to use the tin at other times throughout the year.

Another decoration idea might be to use flat Christmas magnets....if its magnetic metal!!
