Description
This little crab storage tin is dressed like an old-fashioned seafood can, with a bright red crab at the centre of its lid. The lid is a light sky blue framed in deeper blue, with red ribbon banners reading "Packed" and "Fresh", a white scroll border, tiny gulls and white feathers, and the words "Sea Food Co.", "Healthy & Good" and "Ocean Crab Meat" lettered across it. The base is a rich royal blue carrying "Ocean Crab Meat" in white along its long sides, and the inside is plain silver in colour. It is our mini size, 10cm long, 6.5cm wide and 3.2cm high, with room inside of roughly 9cm long, 5cm wide and 2cm deep.
That compact space suits the small things that otherwise drift around a home. On a desk it keeps paper clips, drawing pins and spare staples together; by the front door it holds loose coins; on a dressing table it gathers rings, earrings and hair grips; in a sewing basket it corrals buttons, beads and safety pins. At its size it slips easily into a drawer, a handbag or a bedside cabinet, and it looks just as at home left out on a shelf, bringing a cheerful seaside note to a study, a bedroom or a craft corner.
The lid lifts straight off the base and rests back on top, with no hinge to bend or catch to fiddle with, and the print runs across the lid and around the sides so the tin looks good wherever it sits. To keep the colours bright, wipe it with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away. For a thoughtful little present, tuck a pair of earrings or a ring inside and let the tin become part of the gift.
