I’ve collected 30 of the craftiest ideas for you. From bread pans and utensil holders to toys, planters, and even lamps and lanterns, we’re going to make good use of those empty plastic or metal coffee containers and turn that trash into treasure!
1. Bread baking pan
2. Birdhouse
3. Burlap covered decor cans
4. Wall mounted yarn cubbies
Leethal Blog used their coffee cans to create some space efficient and well organized yarn storage! Especially if your yarn is wound oblong or still twisted in a skein, most cans are the perfect size and shape. Their tutorial gives you tips for covering the brand labels for a more decorative element and mounting them to the wall on their bottom end.
5. Ombre painted flower vases
Almost Makes Perfect soaked off their labels and then used fading brush techniques to create a pretty ombre effect!
