How cute are the colorful fabric covered tin cans? When it comes to inexpensive craft ideas, tin cans are an essential item to keep on hand, at least in my opinion. For crafters like me who keep all kinds of leftover odds and ends on hand to make more crafts, you will be thrilled to be able to make pretty containers for organizing. I’ve done a project similar to this with paper, but find the fabric is more durable and looks a little nice. Plus you can coordinate with your decor and this is an excellent way to use fabric scraps.
