For the Bazaar Stall

AINTED biscuit and cake tins are a profitable and good-looking addition to the usual cake stall equipment. Bmpty sweet tins of good shape with tightly fitting lids answer the purpose and can be bought quite cheaply, if they cannot be begged. Paint them with a good enamel or lacquer, choosing where possible colours that will harmonise with the colours of the stall. Blue, buff, and brown are always popular colours for kitchen tins, and look well displayed on the stall. Two coats of paint are sometimes necessary, but: a small tin of enamel will cover nine or ten med-ium-sized tins, If someone can add let- _ tering or a design in gilt, so much the better. The tins may be sold empty in sets or singly, but will also. find a ready sale filled with biscuits or any amall cakes.
