Trick or Treat Cans

I have formula cans laying around again - I saved them to see if I could come up with something cute and crafty. Here is what two of them turned in to:

Trick or Treat buckets for Ben and Jake. 

Aaron says they are too small and won't hold enough candy, but seriously do a 2 and 4 year old need more candy then these will hold?  Anyway, this was super easy thing to do.  I just ripped off the label, mod podged halloween paper on the can, cut out some cute letters with the cricut, drilled holes for the wire handle, added some ribbon and a cute jack-o-lantern button, and waa-laa -   Finished!  Ben and Jake love them and wish I would give them to them now, but I don't want them destroyed - did I mention they were 2 and 4 year old boys - before Halloween.  I didn't make one for Kaden this year because he's only 7 months old and has no teeth - how is he supposed to eat candy like that?!

  1. Cute! I love covering cans. I just did a whole bunch of veggie cans with Halloween paper. I have the can opener that doesn't make sharp edges, so the lids pop right back on. We are filling them with treats to take to friends!
