Art stuff cans

Wednesday, January 2, 2008

Here are two cans I made for my kids (one for Kaitlyn, one for Kyle) to store their "art supplies" (markers, gel pens, colored pencils, etc.). These used to be Frito chip containers that I actually bought at the dollar store just so that when we were done with the chips I could cover the cans. You know you are a crafter if you understood that last statement.

This is such a cute idea. I'm sure your kids will love them. I need to make something like this for my kids so all of their art supplies will stay in one place.

I love what you did with these. I've been saving my Crystal Light containers so I could do something like this. Great inspiration!

I love these! I am a big disney fan! These are just to adorable. I may have to go to the dollar store to get a fritos can. LOL! It would be perfect to embellish and make into my disney savings bank.
