What to make of old cans at leisure

There are tin cans in every house. Do not rush to throw them away – they will still be useful as improvised materials. The editorial board of the Site will tell you what can be made from cans.



What you can make from improvised materials We have collected five cool ideas for crafts. We're going to need tin cans, polymer glue, paint and decoration materials. These materials are simply found at home.

We take three ordinary cans of canned goods and fasten them with tape so that we get a cylinder. With PVA glue, we paste the vase with segments of newspapers, coat it with varnish and leave it to dry.





Decorate the vase with dry napkins so that the “barelief” turns out, and leave it to dry for a day. Also to the vase you can add decor in the form of beads and pistachios, from which you will get picturesque flowers. We cover the vase with acrylic paint, paint the decor - our product is ready.



For a change, we will make two candlesticks. We take two tin cans and glue napkins on them so that a rough surface with protrusions is obtained. To the first candlestick we add shells, and to the second - unnecessary bolts and nuts. We fix the decor with polymer glue, paint the products and leave it to dry well.





The organizer is very convenient to fold the office. To make one, we need a tin can and ice cream sticks. We paint the sticks in white and purple colors alternately. The bottom of the can is also painted in purple and glue sticks so that a “fence” is obtained.



Apply acrylic varnish to the product and leave to dry. We add decor in the form of beads: on the perimeter of the bank we lay out two rings, on top and bottom of the organizer. You can also come up with something in the center of the craft. Show imagination and use what is at hand.



Another interesting craft is an organizer from an old keyboard. You can find it at home or ask if one of your friends has one. Paint the jar with black paint and let it dry. Meanwhile, we disassemble the keyboard and select the appropriate keys. We fasten the elements on the jar in a chaotic order and coat with varnish.





Making something from cans is a creative and entertaining process. Just start and after a while in each subject you will see an idea for crafts. We wish you creative success and inspiration. What ideas do you have for handcrafts?
