Its that time of year again to see if anyone locates the tin cookie/candy buildings that make great tinplate Christmas villages. Saw these at Macy's today. Not inexpensive, but watch for sales.
Also saw this one at Christkindlmarket downtown Chicago.
Our small display.

Thanks for the input, they look great, will head over to Macy's to check them out.
Hallmark has them too and they're different from the ones shown above. Seems like plenty of variety this year.

Great idea!
Cracker Barrel has one, also.
*BUMP* can't remember when I first posted this! I did some hunting and did end up getting several. Excepting one, the are all in the "Town" area on the Upstairs Layout. Will try to dig up pics on my computer- or take new pics very soon showing them in situ.
Here’s my tins-as-buildings collection:
I have several of these as well. I can usually pick them up for about $12 a piece. I love and given the cost I don't care when the kids play with them on the floor and make little towns. I have several of them ones seen above. Harry London Chocolates has made a bunch of them. fyi- its an American company, the houses are not from London!
