Craft: Formula Can Make-over

We have recently had to start using more formula cans, and I decided instead of sending them on to the recycling center.. that I would give them a new life. Have a look:



ITEMS NEEDED:
- Formula Cans (.. or others, use your imagination)
- Glue
- Scissors or paper cutter
- Paper (I used old calendar pages- might also work with fabric)

HOW TO:
- Wash & dry can
- Pick out paper you want to go around it
- Cut paper to size
- Glue & let dry
- Enjoy. =o)

TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER:
- Add twine, ribbon, raffia, buttons, etc.
- Label with scrapbooking stickers

USES:
- Craft notion storage
- Make into a toliet paper- tissue dispenser by cutting sunburst holes in lid
- Use for handkerchiefs
- Use as dried flower vase
- Decoration
- Anything small you need to store. =o)


I've kept the lids but I'm not sure what can be done to dress them up. Will let you know if I come up with something!

Yay! Great FSOT find!

Avery absolutely refuses to nurse.. so I pump and give her breast milk. Even so, I'm only producing about 2/3 of what she needs right now, and have to supplement with formula. I love FSOT (For Sale or Trade) on one of the forums I frequent. I stumbled across a listing for an unopen can of the formula we use & 3 $5 coupons for $10 shipped. Definitely a win-win situation for me!! =o)
