Crayon Can Holders!
This idea was given to me from a crafty friend of mine that I like to stalk ;) Pinterest helped too except these are more elaborate than the ones I found on Pinterest. I have no idea what I'm going to use them for because there are so many options: hold plastic utensils for a baby shower, pens, scissors, markers, craft supplies, small baby supplies, etc.
Supplies needed:
28-30 Crayons per Can (mine were green bean cans)
Hot glue
Ribbon
Scissors
Directions:
The project is basically self explanatory. I wrapped the top and bottom of the can with ribbon. Then started hot gluing the crayons. TIP: It's very easy for the crayons to start slanting to the side so every few crayons, I'd stop and make sure they were staying straight.
Side note: Apparently I need baby proofed items...and not just because I have a 10 month old. 2 minutes into making this project and I had already slit my thumb wide open on the inside of the can. If I did that I knew my daughter would too, so I hot glued ribbon along the top inside of the can and it fixed the problem!
Cute!
