Wow, how super neat is this!!! Tell me, was there paint in these and where did it go? haha I couldn't resist asking since that was on my mind during this whole video. I was thinking that these cans would be super cute as storage too... LOVE this idea. Super inspiring!! Thank you so much for sharing!
@brooknrich HaHa, Brook, YOUR comment made me laugh! No there was no paint in this. I buy my empty cans from either a paint store, or walmart, or home depot. They are cheapest at a paint store...about $2.50 a can for the gallon sized. They are great for storage, I even use them in my son's room, but he wouldn't let me decorate it (go figure) so on his I just put labels, and they hold his marbles, wooden blocks, etc. I've used these for gift cans, and they always seem to be a hit.
@corenescreations :) I just had to think that they were empty b/c you A. bought them that way or B. there was a huge bin outside your house with fun paint colors inside. :) I kept thinking "how would I use all that paint up so I could alter one?" Go figure. I am so picking up some of these next time I'm at home depot. My mind is running WILD with things to fill them with in my craft room. Have you ever shipped one? Like for a swap or something?
@brooknrich That made me laugh :) I love the idea of having fun paint colors in a bin outside, but I really can't be trusted with all that paint! I have shipped one before, by just putting it inside a box, to my lil sister & she said it shipped well. My favorite to decorate is for someone having a baby so they reuse it for storage in the babies room. Thanks again for making me "S.M.I.L.E"!!!!
Great idea! Woidl looove to make these as "new home" gifts bags (cans). These are beautiful. Would you mind posting pics as to what they look like at reception/venue?
@PoconoPam Hi Pam!! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment. I think that is a fabulous idea to use the paint cans for "new home" gifts, what a great, great idea! I will be more then happy to post pics of them at the reception, as soon as we get our pics back. I do have to tell you, I had several people come up to me to say they loved them, and thought they were a good idea, so I think the new home gifts would be great. Hope your having a good week.
@babytweetums Hi Schell! The paint cans are so much fun to make, and I use them as "gift bags" & people love them. Give it a try! Hope your having a great weekend! Hugs, Corene
