Yesterday I showed you a sneak peak at how I am getting on with organizing my craft room. Today I am sharing with you the quick, easy, cheap simple idea that is...
Pretty pen pots
Tools and Materials
- Empty tin can
- Tilda flower garden & Winter Bird Printed 230 gsm paper
- Double sided sticky tape
- Scissors
Pretty pen pots, How-to step by step

Wash and dry the empty tin can. Cut a piece of printed card the size of your tin can (you can use the old can label as a template). Cover the outside of the can in strips of double sided sticky tape. Remove backing from double sided tape and carefully wrap paper around can. Fill with paint brushes, pencils or pens!




Have a sweet day!
So pretty!
ReplyDeleteAhh so many uses for things we throw away (or recycle as the case maybe) tins and jars are useful for so much. I even decorated a jar with the sleeve of an old jumper and then made some small flowers and glued them on, pretty as are yours :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, thought I recognised the paper, I just love Tilda :) I have sprayed some tins with spray paint and stuck Tilda stickers on :)
ReplyDeleteBee happy x
Have a delicious day!
Me encanta....y con los papeles tilda queda precioso...con tu permiso te copio la idea
ReplyDeleteUn beso
These are just lovely, Tori. You're so damn creative, I'm jealous lol.
ReplyDeleteAnd in bonus to this, I've now found a new beautiful paper supplier (I'm in the UK too) which is thick enough and amazingly beautiful designs to make custom home made cupcake wrappers. Brucey bonus!!
Thanks for sharing,
