Hi everyone! I’m on an organizing kick…and I know a lot of you are, too. A new year means new resolutions and sometimes lofty goals, which means the need to clear the clutter and get busy! Last week I showed you a few ideas for how to transform a painter’s drop cloth into beautiful home accessories, and you guys seemed to like that post. So this week, I thought I’d feature another humble material: the tin can. Turns out, it makes an awesome storage container. Here are some ways to dress up tin cans for upcycled storage vessels or vases.

Makes me crave some Campbell’s soup for some reason…and I know what I’ll do with the leftover can! Happy organizing!
I really like this round-up! I love repurposing things, I will be trying a few of these!
Thanks, Bethany! I'm glad you enjoyed the post.
Washi Tape, who doesn't love it. I also love the can covered in sticks, that's fabulous. Thanks for sharing
My pleasure, Andrea! Thx for coming by and have a wonderful evening!
What pretty ideas!
I'm glad you enjoyed the post, Tanya! Have a great weekend!
Hi Val,
Found you via Craft-O-Maniac. Thank for sharing these ideas! My favorite is the one done up with the twigs.

I like that one, too! Thanks for visiting, Val…and good name, by the way! 😉
I came across your blog while on another one and I just love your ideas. Your 10 Tin Can ideas are amazing and great projects for this winter snow days for the kids.
I would love to have you to link up at my weekly Clever Chicks Blog Hop: http://www.the-chicken-chick.com/2014/01/clever-chicks-blog-hop-70-with-three.html

I love upcycling. Great ideas. We made a tin can robot one time for a school project.
What great ways to reuse those cans! Thanks for the ideas!
Thanks for dropping by, Vickie!
Fun! Thanks for visiting, Amanda!
