TRASH FIND - An Easy $1.06 Trash Can Makeover DIY
3 Materials
This easy DIY makeover was another neighborhood trash find that was prettied up and secretly returned back to it's original owner!
The BEFORE trash can picture
When I walk the grand-pups in our neighborhood on trash day, I'm always watching for good items in trash piles. This little can was an easy pick and I knew I could do something cute with it.
Dollar store contact paper
The good ol' local dollar store came through for me again. One roll of contact paper for $1.00 plus tax. Cha-Ching $1.06
Silver spray paint for the inside of the can
I spray painted the inside of the can silver just to freshen it up a bit.
The AFTER trash can picture
I covered the outside with the contact paper and tied a piece of raffia around the can which finished it off nicely. Like most of my trash finds, this little can was also secretly returned back to the original owners front porch. Rang their doorbell, ran like crazy and didn't get caught Enjoy your day ~Lela (TrashFindRedesigned on ETSY) My BLOG at www.trashfindredesigned.com
