I love to organize. I love baskets and bins. But my hubby thinks I tend to go over board. I think it is because he doesn't like me spending the money.
So I came up with a way to organize my craft room and desk at school with out spending any money. Empty cans. They come in all sizes and are recycled any way. I just cleaned them up and wrapped them in cute coordinating scrapbook paper. I was really happy how it turned out. And I got to use my old cans and pieces of scrap scrapbook paper.
Materials:
Cans, scrapbook paper, tape
Step 1:
Clean can. Use pliers to push down jagged edges.
Step 2:
Cut paper to fit can.
Step 3:
Tape 1 end of paper to can. Some cans still have a some glue on them and don't need that. Wrap the paper around and tape again covering the entire seam.
Done.
Update: Here are some pictures of other uses for the cans.
