Sesame Street Cans

It's Winter here, and while it's been pretty darn awesome we have had some wet days. I don't know about your kids but mine would much prefer to play with anything around the house...other than their toys. So as you know I am a bit of a hoarder and I had a pile of formula cans and thought I'd make them some stacking cans.

Lets make some!

Supplies:

Empty Cans

Spray paint

Pictures

Sticker maker (You can use modpodge but this thing is just so much easier!)

Sealer (optional but it gives it a bit of gloss and protects your picture)

Spray paint the cans.

Cut your pictures out, I just found random Sesame Street ones on the web.

Ran them through the sticker maker.  (click through to read more)

They come out looking like this.

Stick them on and coat with the sealer.

Then you can:

Stack them

Roll and chase them

Use them as stools

Or and most importantly, fight over one even though there are five more and one of those is exactly the same. As seen in the bottom right picture as Max attempts to pull it out from Madeleine.

DIY Delight or Disaster? Delight! The kids absolutely love these, it kept them entertained for hours on the grey old afternoon I gave them to the kids to play with.


Please no judging the housework it was late afternoon on a Sunday, no point vacuuming when the kids are all home that waits for Monday. Also Max needs a hair cut, I know it, my Mother pointed it out but I just don't want to part with those baby locks yet - Not cutting your kids hair because you want it, hoarding level 2!
