I had saved an empty Pringles can because I feel like I have to reclaim almost everything... I also have a ton of jute that needs to be used up. I started hot gluing the jute around the base of the can, made it up a couple inches, and decided it shouldn't go all the way up to the top. I grabbed some scrap muslin and hot glued that on above the jute. Just to be sure the can didn't peek through, I wrapped some more jute around where it met the muslin. I also wrapped the jute around for about an inch at the top of the can. Viola! A vase.
I'd been seeing wonderful arrangements of budding or flowering branches and thought that would be great with this vase. I grabbed a few dead branches from outside and made some pink flowers from tissue paper laying around, then hot glued them onto the branches.

Sweet! Fashionable and springy. : )
what a great upcycle - I love the shape - pringles can, who would have known! :)
Super cute idea! And I would love "prepping" the tin by emptying it! hahaha
Very cute and creative!
This is a very chic bit of upcycling. I featured it on today's My Crafty Weekend. Thanks for sharing!
That turned out great. I'm featuring this at womenwhodoitall.blogspot.com
