Except there's only four, but the titles are playing their own game, as some of may have noticed!
Another thematic one now, to which I've added some non-found objects content to stretch the post out, and again we seem to be firmly in Christmas or Christmassy territory, although some of this stuff is all-year-round gift shop fayre!
Tins, specifically, tins which look like houses, or buildings, although, to disprove the rule the instant I establish it, one is just a couple of Pooh Bear images! But it is house shaped and both had rather old tea-bags in, which went on the garden some time ago; it's all good compost/soil conditioner!
The Pooh one, it is what it is!
But this, obviously commissioned by
Waitrose supermarkets (part of the
John Lewis group), almost certainly at/for the Christmas season is charming, showing something akin to the original store (
Waite, Rose & Taylor . . . what did Taylor do to be excised?) as a wrap-around artwork.
Scaled around the 25/28mm mark, it would be a shoo-in for old-school wargaming, just plonk it down and declare the area built-up/the high street! I don't know if this had tea, chocolate or sweets in? Something else?
While I shot these in
TKMaxx a year ago, both were tea containers I think, German? The same roof/lid but one a two-story Southern German municipal building (
Rathaus Teabagg), the other more of a Wilhelminian town-house over three floors! That's it; a bit of fun!
