Hey, don’t throw those cans in the recycle bin!
Re-cycle/Re-purpose them to use as decor around your house.
How about I share some Recycled can ideas that anyone can do!
Today, I in fact did three of my own.
This is not my first rodeo with recycled can ideas.
I have in fact done a few in the summer time.
Now onto today’s recycled cans idea.
Nothing fancy here. I just mod podged some Halloween labels I found at Walmart the other day, embellished with some creepy crawler spiders.
And of course some fresh flowers.
They look so happy in the window.
Pretty soon the leaves will be changing color, and I love to look out my window while doing the dishes.
Or should I say while loading up the dishwasher.
Now how about I share some other inspiration I found for you.
Here is my most recent recycled can idea, that I just LOVE.
And some other creative ideas.

October 9 at 10:01 pmI just came from my craft room painting some cans and now I see your post. Great timing! All are great ideas. I threw 6 chicken broth cans away this weekend because my can stash is really adding up. I need to figure out what all I’m going to do with the ones I have.

October 11 at 11:27 amOh how things have changed! I can remember my grandmother using an old tin can as a pot for her flowers. LOL I used to think it was so weird, even as a 10 year old. Now we use them to decorate and store, and so much more. Too cute, Deb. 🙂

Carol says
October 12 at 6:21 pmVery cute ideas, Debbie! After one of your first “can” ideas, I washed & saved a few in my decor closet — now I know what I shall do with them!
Do you know we have the same kitchen light fixture? Mine is over my island. Great minds & such good taste in decorating, don’t you think? LOL!!!

October 30 at 7:46 pmI would love to do some crafts with cans, but last time I attempted I cut my finger pretty nasty on the edge where the can was opened (it was a can with a pop top). Any suggestions on what to do about those nasty edges? I’m dedicated to crafts, but I feel like there’s such a thing as too much blood shed for them lol

October 30 at 10:13 pmTo be honest, I have cut my fingers too. I say we wear gloves when removing the lids:)
