Using and decorating old cans and wood, paired with a couple of flea market finds (salt can and cracker tin), turn it all into something fun and decorative!
Total Time: 1 hour
Supplies:
- cans or jars
- modge podge (or mixture of glue and paint) and paint brush
- double stick tape
- wood
- printed vintage labels
Steps:
- For the sign: Using modge podge or a mixture of half glue and half water, paint a piece of wood. Let it dry. Paint the glue mixture onto the back of a printed picture or design. Place onto wood, centering and pressing from the center of the design outward to the edge, carefully, to avoid wrinkles.
- Add an additional layer of glue and water mixture. Let dry. Paint as many coats as you think it needs. I usually do three coats, letting it dry between each coat.
- For the cans, use double stick tape to apply a label to a clean, empty can. This is a bottle I had and I used it as a milk bottle.
