My Mother covered a couple with contact paper from the dollar store, and stored her knitting needles in them. I just thought about this one. We save pop tabs for Ronald McDonald house, so the Pringles cans could be covered with paper and make a tag with a cute design, to tape on it with the wide shipping tape. Cut a hole in lid large enough to slip tabs through. Would be a good craft for kids to do.
Where my Husband works the guys would see him pop the tabs off his cans every day. So finally one of them asked why he did that. He told them and the next day they all tossed their tabs in his lunch bucket. They started saving them at home and bringing them into him. I am getting me some Pringle's tomorrow.
I use the pringle boxes to store my paint brushes. I decorate the box and it stores the brushes nicely. The bottles from the meds are used to store beads and other craft items. I also wash the little bottles and put condiments into them when making my daughters lunch..the perfect size.
I painted a santa face on the top side of the can. then covered the can with a piece of old quilt. Put the doll hair or you can tear strips of fabric to make the hair and beard. Make a hat if you want and slip down over the top of the can Then you have and old country Santa. Turned out real cute.
Cover a Pringles can with construction paper, and color it to look like an animal, real or imaginary, or an alien creature. Use markers to draw a face on the lid. Glue 4 prescription bottles horizontally to make legs for the creature.
Cover a Pringles can with fabric or paper. Decorate the paper before gluing on. Glue as many prescription vials without tops as will fit in the bottom of the decorated can. Put the Pringles top on the bottom of the can. Use the can as a vase for silk flowers. Or put water in the vials and use real flowers.
