The Five Inch Tin

"Fiber, Tile, Tin".  That was my original subtitle on this poor lonely blog.  I did post about my coffeebean bags ( fiber).  Now it is due time for tin.  As in tin cans, really steel cans, coated with a thin layer of tin as an anti-corrosive. The ones I love still have the labeling printed directly on the metal. The color and permanence and often the design is strangely beautiful and I had to find a way to use the images instead of tossing the cans in the recycling.  The result is The Five Inch Tin.  Everyday design should not be a throwaway but delightful, elegant or fun.  Why not?
