I've had a few of those stars on my tree for a while. I'm thinking they came from an after Christmas clearance sale at Target. That's where most of my newer ornaments came from. Hi Susan,

I have a bunch of empty food storage cans waiting for some type of project. I saw an idea that you can put Christmas presents in them. Wrapping the can with wrapping paper and putting a bow on the top. Perfect for odd shaped items! Pamela What a simple yet cute idea!
