Altered Soup Can


The soup and fruit cans that have the pop top lid make the cutest gift wrapping for small gifts.  This technique is so easy.  I usually open the can from the bottom, but sometimes the can have a smooth bottom that prevents it.  After cleaning the can, I decorated it with zebra print paper from The Paper Studio from Hobby Lobby.  I always have to have some kind of bling!!  I used rhinestones from Hobby Lobby and a red boa from Creatology from Michaels.  Once the gift is placed in the can, use E6000 glue or JBWeld to glue it closed.  Everyone always loves getting one of these gift cans!!!

**Use the can opener that takes the entire lid off and leaves a smooth edge.
