These Canisters Got My Number
I loved this trio of vintage triangular shaped canisters when I spotted them at the thrift store.
An hour after scrubbing the packing tape off of them, I stenciled the numbers 2, 4, and 7 on them. Tied them together with some jute, added a few teaspoons and a key, and set them on a little, round, metal tray painted white.
What should I put in them?

So cute! I like the stenciled #'s on them. Umm, if you keep them in the kitchen, the teabag idea is a good one. Or else you could store little kitchen gadgets or how about your favorite recipe cards for easy grabbing?

Oh my gosh Becky what a wonderful find.....love what you did to them too!!
ReplyDeletelove them, what a great idea. As far as what to put in them. more junk of course.

how cute! you did a great job. I would go with "more junk" too. :) Sort of like a catch all. Keys etc... stuff you need to grab right before walking out the door! Heck even if you don't put anything in them, they're awfully cute!

Those turned out great - I would put beads, buttons, or old jewelry in them.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen canisters exactly that shape. I really like how you tied them together. The possibilities for what to put in them is endless. Fantastic find!!
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous. No need to put anything in them, you can just use them as decor. So cute, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find. Love what you did with them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find - I love the shape and your numbers are a perfect addition. I just started following your blog - I thought I was before, but I am for sure now!
