Edited to add: this is just a regular can from the grocery store (it had spinach in it). Look for the kind with the square bottom, not the ones with the rounded bottom that stack. Cut the bottom off with a safety can opener, wash out, decorate, fill with stuff, glue the bottom back on with crystal effects, super glue, or some other strong glue.

Very cute! I've used a small can of baked beans for the ones I've done. Has anyone had problems getting the CS to stick to the can? What did you use to adhere the paper? CE? Thanks!

I LOVE the decoration - snowmen & snowflakes are my fave Xmas motif. After seing all these fab examples, I had to have a go myself. Many thanks for the inspiring idea!
