kojotutorial: formula can redo

September 9, 2009

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Remember the cache of formula cans I mentioned awhile back? Well, I’ve been busy remaking them into lovely storage. If you have some empty containers lying around requiring a facelift, this is super super simple (perhaps even too simple for a tutorial, but here we go)!

You’ll need:
-a formula can
-spray paint
-ribbon
-a hot glue gun1. Using your spray paint, cover the entire outside of the container. Let dry.2. Using your glue gun and coordinating ribbon, glue strips of ribbon around your the circumference of the container.

3. Use this little beauty to brighten up your office or craft room! Fabulous!

    That is the cutest formula can I've ever seen! You could stash all kinds of junk in there!

    Oh, and I love the first chandelier below.

    Adorable! I've seen something similar made with scrapbooking paper, but I love the ribbon, too. Way to go!

    OMGOsh….I JUST threw one away and OH, the cans I've tossed in the past! I do, however, have one tall one (from Sams) that I just couldn't bare to throw away so this will be a project soon! Great idea!
