Alternative gift wrap




Here are some pictures a decorated paint can. now this one is very elaborate.But these empty gallon paint cans make great gift wrap. They can be purchased at Coles hardware for 2-3 dollars and some paint stores. You can cover them with paper, fabric , gift wrap ,anything, and can be made for any age. You could even decorate them with your husbands favorite sports team and fill with his favorite snack. I have more pictures of other cans .On my blog and if you Google Decorated paint cans you will see tons of ideas. Great way to disguise a small hard to wrap gift.or fill with cookies, candy etc.

This one I made for a swap I am in that had different projects we needed to include in the paint can so in the pocket on the side it has tags and a bookmark.
for more ideas the link to my blog is http://mariemakeandmend.blogspot.com/
