Reusable Soup Can

Hello All! Sorry I have been MIA...I have been so busy with work and life in general...getting a little thing called gall bladder surgery on Thursday...so lets get some crafting done before I'm in pain for the weekend!!

So this is a simple project-- anyone can do this...even my 3 year old! But I would supervise as scissors are used :)

What you need...


I used soup cans, scissors, Elmers Craft Bond, and craft paper.

This Elmers Craft Bond is AMAZING!!! I want to use it everyday...I just want to think of things to use it on!! I love it. But it gets very sticky, so be sure to spray it over a peice of cardboard.  Pst...it's also a great deal too!

I started by cutting the paper the length of the can. I sprayed the craft bond on the back of the paper after it was cut, and just carefully put it on the empty soup can.



Easy enough right??!!



I just put some forks in it...but you could do straws or whatever. I made 2 of them, but I will eventually make more for the summer time... easy for picnics or birthday partys.

And here it is by my awesome napkin holder (that's what I call it) that I got at the antique store.
