Decorating the interior: crafts from tin cans

How to make beauty out of nothing? 10 simple and practical ideas for decorating your home at no extra cost.

Crafts from tin cans

A small jar of pate or baby food easily turns into an author’s needle bed: just cut out a circle of fabric, fill it with cotton wool or small shreds and, pulling along the edges with a thread, make a pompom, which is then placed in the jar.

Tin cans will be happy to “take a liking” to your indoor plants. To make such a pot last longer, use it for cacti and succulents, which are enough to water once a month, and therefore, the tin will not suffer too much from moisture.

Place large cans covered with colored paper on open shelves and racks – such a cheerful storage system will decorate the room and will cost you nothing.

Such lamps will certainly create coziness on the country terrace. Punch a few holes in the jar and place a pill candle in it.

A dispenser, put on an empty can, turns an unnecessary container into a very necessary thing – a container for liquid soap. To prevent it from rusting ahead of time, use a jar with a white inner protective coating.

Let’s paint the jars with white paint, and the “almost porcelain” flower vases are ready!

Empty cans of peas and olives are the very place in the kitchen. All you need to do is attach a few cans to a wooden board to get some pretty cutlery holders.

These tin “pockets” will not only decorate your child’s workplace, but also save the table from clutter. Each jar can be labeled as “crayons,” “erasers,” “markers,” “paper clips,” and more.

In tea jars, beautiful candles in the oriental style are obtained – for this you need to take a thick thread as a wick and pour wax or paraffin into the jar. It is not a shame to present such a candle as a gift.
