Treasure Tins
Pocket-sized and packed with fun for little ones!

This embroidered construction site diorama will fit inside an empty Altoids ® tin or any rectangular tin that is approximately 3 3/4” long, 2 3/8” wide, and 7/8” deep with a hinge on one long side. Simply stitched on felt, cut out, and glued to the inside of the tin, this project is super easy and fun to make! There are two designs in this set – sized 3.63″ x 2.27″ and 3.63″ x 2.17″. They are included in the following design formats: ART, EXP, HUS, JEF, PES, VIP & VP3

🚧 Assorted printable construction signs are provided on the last page of the project instructions! 🚧

TIP! World’s Smallest ® Tonka Dump Truck and World’s Smallest ® Tonka Front Loader are the perfect micro mini vehicles to fit inside your Construction Treasure Tin—You may find those online at Amazon, Target, Walmart, or the Knick Knack Toy Shack. (See DETAILS below for links and more info.) Use tan or brown mini pompoms as “dirt” to push and haul around!

Tips for finding appropriately sized tiny construction vehicles:

Find the “World’s Smallest Tonka Dump Truck” and “World’s Smallest Tonka Front Loader” online at amazon.com or knickknacktoyshack.com OR online/in stores at Target or Walmart. When ordering online, be sure to check the dimensions of the vehicles to be sure they will fit inside the tin: If at least one dimension is smaller than 7/8” (0.875″) and the largest dimension is no more than 1 1/2” (1.5″), they should work nicely.

Find tiny brown pompoms at craft/hobby stores for “dirt” to scoop and haul around!
