Oh I love this!!! So super cute!!! I didn't know that grits came in a container like oatmeal. I thought they either came in a bag or a box with little packets!! We don't have them in this kind of container here! But then, the only way I can eat them is if they are floating in butter and sugar!! Not all Southern grown girls like grits ya know!! :)
ReplyDeleteThis came out so pretty, Janis! Great job on repurposing your grits container!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute!! Love the idea. I have an award for you over at my blog! Jenn :) http://craftyfulgardens.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThis is so so cute!! :) And what a great way to recycle!! TFS :)
ReplyDeleteOOoooh. This is a GREAT idea! I have been planning on using an old can for my kitchen utensils...but it would be ugly. And I like non-ugly things. I can't make something this cute, but I could sure cover it in patterned paper and contact paper! Thanks for such a great idea!!!
ReplyDeletetoo cute ! what a great idea !
ReplyDeleteSooooo cute. I'm always saving these "cans" and never know what to do with them. Now I do. Thanks!!
