Paint Cans

[mfischer]

Hi guys! I am sure this has been talked about before, but since I am fairly new, and exploring EVERYTHING I see or hear of on this site, can anyone tell me how to do the paint can thing? How do you get your paint cans clean? Do you buy them clean already somewhere? What about the whole can thing in general? How do you put a gift in a can without opening the tab top of it? Are there general measurements on what size of paper to cut for the paint can? How do you get it all to "stick" to the paint can? Thanks for any help you guys can give me, this site is wonderful and you girls are GREAT!

Ok,
Lots of questions. :shock:
First off, Paint cans, you begin with a clean never used can. And I have attached directions from Suthnheart, Marcia Howell...they are great and easy to use. Here also is a great link to some cans but you may find it easier and cheaper to go to Home Depot or Lowes and ask for them there...

Also here is a link to what to put inside them...

As for the tab top cans...you open them from the bottom then fill and decorate and then seal the bottom then give as a neato little gift...
Hope that helps!
