April 4-H Project - DIY Pringles Can Paint Brush Holder

We will be making a

DIY Pringles Can Paint Brush Holder for our 4-H project for April.

Save those Pringles Cans.

You can also use the can for other things!

Materials Needed:

• Empty Pringles Can
• Fancy Paper (I used Lotus Flower Paper from Paper Source)
• Mod Podge and sponge
• Ribbon

1. Rinse out the Pringles can quickly without letting the water sit in it too long, it’ll get soggy. Dry off completely.
2. Cut a piece of paper to fit the Pringles can plus two inches lengthwise.
3. Spread a thin layer of glue on the back on the paper and place just below the lip of the can. Press paper to the can slowly, smoothing out air bubbles as you wrap it around the can.
4. Fold over the 2 inches of excess paper on the bottom of the can, wrapping it like a present.
5. Tie the ribbon into a bow on the front and secure the ribbon on the back with a small amount of Mod Podge.
