How can I reuse or recycle foil mince pie/jam tart tins?
A couple of weeks ago on the “Suggest an Item” page, Fishcake_Random asked:
How can I recycle the little foil tins that mince pies and jam tarts come in??? I have a large stack this year and I just know they must have some amazing crafty type useage.
(Apologises that I’ve only picked it up a little late – after mince pie season has finished for another year…)
Foil tins can often be recycled alongside cans in metal recycling bins/kerbside – and sometimes (although less so now recycling is widely available) to raise money for charity.
Like foil cat food trays, they can be used as a mould for making soaps or for little tealight-shaped candles.
Any other suggestions?
