Upcycling tin cans is a great way to turn trash into treasure. Not only are you helping to reduce waste, but you're also creating something beautiful and useful from materials that would otherwise end up in a landfill. With recycled tin can craft ideas, you can turn your trash to treasure and create unique DIY home decor pieces that you'll be proud to display.

Hi, do your graphics come reversed or do I have to do do that, I'm not tech savvy, thanks ... Love your channel BTW
Hi there sorry just seeing this reply now. Yes, every file has a reverse image for you to use so you don’t have to worry about learning how to flip it. Sorry for the delay.
I have seen artists use a mallet or hammer to do this crimping for the cans. It works beautifully!!!
Great idea!
Lids as a pedestal, brilliant!
They work great
More like 4 or 5 'upcycles' - 1.plant pots (ad infinitum) 2.stationary tools holder 3.refuse-bag dispenser (excellent, unique idea, used the plastic lid too!) 4. candle jar (might improve safety by adding feet) 5.container for odds and ends - with 3 or 4 decorative methods centered around different materials used for trim and the transfer of text or graphics, via 3 conversions; 1.crimping one end 2. paint and decorate, attach or stack 3. create aperture for dispenser. I'm not saying it's bad. Pls don't be upset that I didn't fawn and gush. The Dispenser is the 'genius idea', the others are variations on solid basics IMHO
I'll be using the dispenser idea. Thank You!
I recently found that a 14 oz can fits neatly over a chain link fence post. I’ve glued a pie plate on top and these are my bird feeders. Since the pie tins are metal, I can create suet in them with lard of any type. The birds appreciate the extra food in the winter. I’m making wood ones from scraps we have this year and using a gelatin based suet with a bread baking dish.
What a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
Love this so much! ❤
Wunderschöne,bezaubernde Ideen .😊👍
Tired of watching can projects? NEVER! 😅
More too come!!❤️
Me neither!!!❤😂
Nope! I'm back watching this one again...bc This is what I'm doing today. So fun & endless ideas!😍
I would like to go from just watching to actually DOING, though.
When I worked in the lunch room of the school, I frequently had large cans. Good place to get some!
Great idea thanks for sharing
I don't know if all of her videos are like this, but what I appreciate about THIS video is that, although there are some projects that are above my skill level, made with tools/machinery that I don't have (and can't afford), and made with materials that I would have to go out and buy, there are also a few simple projects that are made with things most beginner crafting enthusiasts have around the house already. I REALLY appreciate that variety!
Glad you enjoyed ❤️
Thanks for doing a true; trash to treasure! May Jesus continue to bless you and your family
Thank you ♥️
Amen 🙏
I love all of these
Thanks for watching Barbara. Glad you enjoyed.
Thank you. What great inspiration.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I enjoyed the music along with the ideas.
Thank you.
I liked them all. Couldn’t pick a favorite. ❤️❤️
Glad you enjoyed
Thank you Deidre for this video. I hate throwing cans out. You always have the best ideas.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed.
My favourite was the one attached to the shovel 🥰
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed.
So many wonderful ideas and lovely results to decorate with. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Favorite was the Tuna cans! Thoroughly enjoyed and watched video Twice!❤❤❤
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your creative earth saving creations.
Thank you! ❤️
Try using your hand can opener on the top of the lid instead of the side to remove it. The lid will come off flawlessly, leaving no sharp edges😲🤔😁( I just recently learned this after 50 years of using a can opener incorrectly). Try it, so much easier.
Yes this works perfect!
This is one of you better videos
Glad you enjoyed
Love these idea with the cans. Genius ideas - Genius lady!
Glad you enjoyed
Hi Deidre! It’s hard to pick a favorite one. I like them all! I’ve got a bunch of cans I needs to upcycle. Good inspiration, thanks!
❤️💜💚
You are so welcome
The shovel handle planter was my favorite, well one of my favorites. These are really clever. ❤
Glad you like them!
I love this.
There is something so beautiful about upcycled .
Thanks for watching Kathy. Glad you enjoyed.
Love all your upcycled tin cans
Thanks glad you enjoyed ❤️
I loved them all. I’m so bad about salvaging, my husband says I am the only person he knows that takes trash to the dump and comes back with more than I took. I hate waste. I have found almost brand-new furniture at the dump to up cycle. I only take wooden furniture, I’m afraid of bugs. Most power tools only need a tuneup. I picked up a weed eater that only had the wires crossed. It took five minutes to get it running. My husband laughed because he said it was junk. I keep telling him we live in a throwaway society. It is easier to buy new then put in a little work. A note of caution; don’t work on things you can’t handle. I am a carpenter, qualified to work with many tools. I bless people with what I don’t need. Blessings all.
I couldn’t have said it better that is exactly how I feel too and my husband says the same thing to me. I’m bringing home more than I took. Lol but I have so many unique and original pieces of furniture and home decor in my house that I love and it didn’t cost me anything to have it. Thank you so much for watching. Glad you enjoyed. Have a great day.
I can't pick a favorite... I love them all. I already use tin cans with holes on bottom to repot plants, but now I will add a coffee filter on the inside bottom to keep from losing dirt and making a mess! You are simply amazing!!!
Yes, that works great
Hello please when you plant flowers inside, are you puting special painting to avoid rust?? Thanks a lot 💐
Loved the planter made out of tin can and the broken shovel handle.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed.

You are so creative and lovely 😊 how do you manage to get every project to beautifully blend in and match your furniture and other surrounding rooms? I really love the decoupage tuna cans and scrap paper, but those little pocket planters, in my opinion are the best! Especially the fabric you used!

You are so welcome!
You have so many more ideas 4 using recycled cans than I knew of. Fantastic projects that I will try some of. I've done the crushed one and put floral in it. I've used things like frozen OJ 4 pencil holders way back in the 60's and 70's. This is an old craft but new ideas. Thanks 4 sharing and advising us to b mindful of the waste that can b used to do good and help our earth.
Wonderful!
Very good video ! Thank you for sharing this .
Glad you enjoyed it!
