Hmmm . . . this could make a great print. After we returned home, I returned to the store to check out the larger muffins. 
Oooh, these are a different shape and look even more promising. I didn't need the muffins, but the packaging was irresistible. 
I slathered the paint on and made some sample prints on paper. I think they have a lot of potential and have added them to my collection.
This just goes to show that great shapes are everywhere. Some of the favorite printing plates come from very simple packaging items. Have you ever looked at the packing tray that holds those tiny liquor filled chocolate bottles? They make great circles, one of my personal favorite shapes!
Keep your eyes open and let me know if you find something good!

AND #6 plastic (which is probably what those muffin tins are) is also shrink plastic, so you can use it that way too. I have found wonderful patterns on the black plastic veggie trays you can get at the grocery store.
So, it was a worthwhile trip in several ways!
Definitely some potential there.
What a good idea.
WE can't throw anything out anymore. I'm always seeing possibilities. Yours made a good print.
