Simple decoupage techniques turn a used milk tin into a stylish storage container
1. Used tin/food container
2. White craft glue
3. 2 small containers (one for glue, one for water)
4. A paintbrush
5. Decorative paper or images
6. Scissors
7. Rag/cleaning cloth
STEPS:
 |
1. Started by cutting out the shapes and placing the cut-outs in water to soften the paper
(this step isn't neccesary if you're using thin paper) |
 |
| 2. Mixed white craft glue with some water and spread the mixture on the container |
 |
| 3. Started placing the cut-outs on the container |
 |
| 4. Layered the cut-outs around the tin |
 |
| 5. Continued step 4 until the container was fully covered, then left it to dry |
 |
6. When it was completely dry, I cut off the overlapping paper with an xacto knife
as close to the top of the tin as possible |
 |
7. Snip off extra paper on the bottom as well, and that's it!
A pretty new storage container for my craft supplies.
