| Thank You Monique! |
My son was on a smoothie kick requiring pineapple juice which I could only find in the kind of can that juice doesn't come in that often anymore. It's about 7 in tall. I saved one of them because it seemed like a smart thing to do and with my
addiction collection of K&CO adhesive scrapbook borders continuing to grow, I needed a better way to
contain the mess organize them!

Large juice can

Ordinarily I would have covered with scrapbook paper, but I remembered I had some contact paper scraps and thought they'd work. I also had some decorative tape I picked up from Michaels $1 section so that went into the plan.
Wrapped the can in the contact paper, went around the top and bottom with the tape. Then I went to my sticker stash and got out some clear stickers from American Crafts. I love these sticker books that have pages and pages of stickers and I'm pretty sure I got this one for $2, 3 bucks at Michaels w/ a coupon!
Since this was going to hold my K&CO scrapbook borders, I thought I should use some of them too:
For the focal, I took a small flower sticker from the pack and mounted it on a white card stock scrap and then mounted to the middle of the medallion sticker on the can using a foam dot.
Here are my scrapbook borders all neat and tidy ( and there's even room for a few more!!!)

Those are some seriously cute stickers and borders. I need to dig into my stash. I love your organizational juice cans - I need some of those too.
Wow, that looks awesome! I could think of a lot of things to use this for too! ~Diane
I love it for so many reasons, the use of the stash, the upcycling of the can, the fancy container for the new stash, the amazing $1 tape...
From smoothie scraps to gorgeous embellishment holder in five seconds, only you can do that...
So simple, yet so elegant!!! Excellent work of art! :)
So sophisticated looking! You really made a great transformation. I just washed several large cans like that waiting for the prefect use for them. Great job
