I tend to like boxes and containers. I fell in love with this one. It was from Virginia Peanuts. I wanted to keep it and use it for something. So I cleaned it out and decorated it. Now I use it for organizing stuff. I need to make a few more in different sizes with the same pattern. Here is how I created it.
Materials:
- a clean container
- vinyl or stickers
- tape
- spray paint (I used Rustoleum Oil Rubbed Bronze)
Directions:
I began by removing the label and cleaning the container of the salt and oil left behind.
I cut the pattern I wanted on my Cricut. You can use tape or stickers or vinyl as a stencil. If you'd like the SVG file for these leaves, you can download it here. [SVG leaves]
I wrapped the metal band at the top and bottom with washi tape because I wanted to leave it silver.
Then I applied the leaves in a random pattern.
Spray the container with spray paint in a well-ventilated area (outside - using a cardboard box)
Once dry, peel the tape and vinyl off the container and enjoy!
