Altered Paint Cans

September 15th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Christine and I made these a few months ago and thought they turned out super cute!
Of course, we love the pink, green and black together, but love the patterns, as well. Instead of using an actual paint can, we used white pails that we found at Michaels. It took some measuring and a bit of trial and error, but all in all, it didn’t take us long to give the pails a new look. Our largest obstacle was making the holes in the paper around the area where the handle is attached to the pail.

We used coordinating chipboard letters to represent the recipient’s last name, as these were a gift. We filled them with popcorn, candy and a gift card.

To obtain some actual instructions, check out Split Coast Stampers….they’ve got it all!
