Reusing Tin Cans | DIY Craft

Filed Under: Crafts, Tutorials Tagged With: pollinate media, sponsored

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and All You, but all my opinions are my own. #lifeforless #pmediahttp://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO

The other day I grabbed the July issue of All You Magazine from my local Harris Teeter. I was scanning through it and came across a few ideas on reusing tin cans. They were adorable and got my mind spinning. I knew I had a ton of yarn leftover from crocheting and of course tin cans.

Reusing Tin Cans

First thing I did was take off the paper and wash the can.

Next I hot glued the yarn at the bottom of the can.

Then I started going up and around the can with the yarn.

Once I got to the top I hot glued it again and cut off the excess.

For the final step I took the other color and wrapped it around to make little x’s on the front.

I really love the way it turned out. It adds a little pop of color to my desk. I am excited to try out some other ideas on reusing tin cans.

How have you reused tin cans? I would love to see your post if you have written about it on your blog. Just leave the link in the comments.

This was my first time reading All You Magazine and I am in love. There are so many awesome things included in the July issue. There are a ton of recipes and over $30 in exclusive coupons. You can buy All You Magazine in a ton of different stores now. I found mine at Harris Teeter, and I got a coupon to use when I buy my next issue.

    Cute! I love it and remember the fad of covering them with contact paper back in the day! I like these better! So many possibilities. And yes, All You is a great mag!
