Default paint cans

Can anyone tell me where I could find empty paint cans, that are new and clean? I've seen some great finished projects using them, but don't know where to get them.

You can get them at most paint stores, or Home Depot type stores. The gallon ones are under $3 here in the midwest, a little over $2 for the pint size. Have fun with them. Mary

I purchased mine at Menards. The gallon size are around $2-$3 and the quart size are $1.69. They were on the shelf near the painting supplies.

Sherwin Williams was the cheapest here. He gave me a special for $2 something per can. Home depot and Lowes was almost double that for the gallon.

I got mine at Sherwin-Williams too... I live too far from Home Depot or Lowe's.... I just did a baby gift in one this past weekend and it was sooooo cute, if I do say so myself! My sister used one for Christmas and filled it with goodies for my college son... Great ideas for all of them! They are fun to decorate and give....
