Fun, fresh, decorating ideas for Spring.
I don’t know about you, but I never look at a can the same way any more.
You know, like open can, empty, recycle.
I think to myself, OH boy, what can I do with this can?
As I mentioned the other day.
Browsing on pinterest can be time consuming, but oh so rewarding as well.
I saw the cutest can, I just had to pin it.
You see I have upcycled and created some cute cans myself,
but never with buttons.
This is my Spring can btw.
I think it will look cute with some flowers on a table scape
with my new burlap place settings
I guess that is the simple story of a simple Spring can.
If you like my cans…
you may want to see some more ways to upcycle and make them purty!
Upcycled can ideas
I used
Dollar tree Spring napkins
mod podge, and trim,
cute embellishments I also found at the Dollar tree. I also had the buttons and hot clued them as well.
Est. time: 30 minutes.

I think its the Girl Scout in me but I do the same thing every time I open a can, especially a can of tuna. We used those far a little burner! Thanks for the inspiration..this would be a fun project to do with my 4yr old granddaughter when she comes to visit.

Well I have to admit, this tin can is speaking to me! The last time I made a tin can I was on second grade and was a gift to my dad’s for father’s day! I guess back then regular Elmer’s glue was the Mod Podge in fashion and we used magazine cut outs, he still has that can on his desk till today! Some cans are meant to be memorable I guess. Thanks for posting Debbie..this one is a keeper for sure!
Jessica @ Mom 4 Real
Yay! I have a ton of buttons! I am so going to save up some cans now!

Jocie@OPC The Better Half
love the buttons on your spring can!
Debbie
30 minutes of Dollar Tree and Mod Podge therapy is EXACTLY what I need right now. I am just dying to do a fun little craft that makes me smile. Yours would fit the bill. I think it’s as cute as a button.
Sorry. Had to say it.
Laura Beth
I love the 3D effect the buttons add to your can :o)
