I made this can for my boys to take with us when we go someplace that doesn`t have toys, like the doctors. It is just out of a Pringles can, some scrapbook paper, to cover the can, and stickers to decorate with. I used rub-on letters and I also put one coat of ModPodge over it too. I was also thinking that it would be a cute birthday present, so I will now be hoarding Pringles cans. Oh and I should thank the boyfriend for his help. He cut the circle for the cover and helped measure the paper for the can, and then told me he wouldn`t have the patience to do this kind of stuff. It literally took 10 minutes to do this, that is not even long enough for your patience to kick in.
I am working on Brayden`s Cars crossstitch right now and also the Santas below. I am getting really bored with these Santas but they are going to be Christmas presents so I have to keep at them. I do one color on Santa then one color on Cars. If I ever decide to make ornaments for people again they will not all be the same. I must get that from my grandfather. He made coffee tables, china cabinet, hope chests and more but none of them were ever the same.
Only 3 to go!! Well 4 actually but #4 only needs another 1/2 hour or so.
I finished another page of Thomas`s crossstitch. I can`t wait to do the next page and see what Mama bunny`s face is going to look like.
