Searching for Tin Pails...

PoliceWife104

Hey ladies!  My FSIL & brother are getting married next summer, & they want to use tin pails for their centerpieces.  She found some on Oriental Trading Company, but they're all to small, at 3". 

Any thoughts as to where else we could look?  I've checked on Craigslist & the bridal consignment store, but I'm not finding a big enough size.

Here's a pic of the ones from Oriental Trading Company...



They could pretty much be any color, as she's probably going to paint them white & have a blue runner under them. 

TIA ladies!  = )

Target has some right now in their easter section.

I'm pretty sure I saw some at Michaels the other day.

Oooo, good call!  I'll have to let her know!  Thanks!

Ditto Enchanted!  I saw some in the dollar spot the other day and thought.... hmmm... that would be great for a wedding centerpiece!  I need to get out of this bridal brain!

Maybe a dollar store? Or even something like Fleet Farm?

ditto the dollar spot.  I have found cute ones there for seasonal decorating almost any time of the year.

I saw them at Target on Tuesday in a bunch of different colors and a couple sizes.  Also, JoAnn has them year-round, but they're $4 or $5.

Here are two websites that have pretty good bulk prices but not a huge selection:
