DIY to Try: Folger Cans Uplift

I don't know about you, but I hate throwing these babies away. They are just too nice of containers to waste! But they are a little too ugly to leave the way they were, and the larger ones had labels that didn't even come off, so that wasn't gonna fly. I wasn't thrilled about the idea of painting plastic, plus I couldn't think of a color that spoke to me, so I dove into my endless collection of printed paper!

 The smaller cans before:

I cut the paper to size and used double sided tape to make it stick. For the larger ones, because of the indents I opted to use squares of different paper to give it a fun variety.

I plan on continually adding to my collection here as I go through more coffee. Actually I already have two more large ones I need to wash and decorate! What can I say, I love me some coffee!

 So far I am using these in Lila's room (because she claimed them) to store little toys and odds and ends that have no where else to go. Its working great because there is a cupboard in her room that has been empty because I couldn't find the right containers. Two birds, baby!

By the way, I keep calling them "cans" but are they really "cans" if they are plastic?
