How to craft with cans

I love to craft with cans.  There are so many things you can do with cans and the best part is, not only is it a recycle craft idea, it’s virtually free.  Well, except for your initial $1.00 purchase of those veggies, or sauce, etc.

I was looking through my archives and thought I would put all my ideas with crafting with cans in one place.

One of my favorite things to paint with on cans is the chalky paint. It adheres well and you can give your can a rustic, or glossy look depending on what you are looking to do with it.

Please pardon my lack of seasonal order here.  I will be sort of all over the place with the seasons.

All the links to the direct project will be highlighted below the can.

I think that is about all the ways I have crafted with cans.  They are fun, free, and as shared here today, many ways to decorate with them.

Enjoy.
