DIY Kitchen Canisters

I had been saving these tin canisters from the recycling forever. So I was quite excited when I figured out a use for them!


Nothing a little spray paint can't spruce up. Just wash out and dry your tins, then add a layer or two of spray paint and ta-da!


I used Krylon Indoor/Outdoor Gloss Blue Ocean Breeze and American Accents Smooth Satin Finish Seaside Green.

I thought some ribbons would look cute. Although, I think I need thicker ribbon.


I love how easy and simple this was. Seriously, like 10 minutes max to complete, plus drying time. What have saved from the recycling to put to use in your house?

  2. These are cute! I like the colors you chose. We inherited a bunch of old coffee cans in our new house, and I have been keeping them purposely so I can craft with them! I like to recycle, too, but I think the one I'm most proud of are actually the lights in our new bathroom...we made them out of applesauce jars. :)
