As a crafter, I couldn’t just toss them in the recycling bin and forget about them. Clearly, they could be repurposed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOne of my favorite ways to cover a tin can is with strips of fabric. It’s fast and easy, and I always have fabric on hand. For this particular project, I tore a blouse I had accidentally shrunk into strips and wrapped the strips around the can, using a dab of hot glue to hold everything in place. I then wrapped a bit of jute around the can for some extra interest. The size of these cans was perfect for a small succulent, \u003cspan\u003ewhich can easily be replanted once it needs more space to grow\u003c\/span\u003e. I then cut an old plant marker in half, wrote a little greeting on it, and tucked it into the twine. This made for the perfect thank-you gesture, and I didn’t even have to buy anything!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eLove to upcycle? \u003ca title=\"Get Published\" href=\"\/collections\/calls-and-challenges\/#grn\"\u003eSubmit your eco-chic crafting projects\u003c\/a\u003e for the chance to be published in an upcoming issue of \u003cem\u003eGreenCraft Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e!\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Free Projects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452541132951,"sku":"PROJ-1305","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/5546\/3319\/files\/PROJ-1305__84345.1597433782.1280.1280.jpg?v=1746794207","url":"https:\/\/stampington.live\/products\/recycled-cat-food-container-succulents-project","provider":"Stampington \u0026 Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
