Coffee Can Repurposing

In this day and age, we have countless amounts of electronic devices everywhere. We also have countless amounts of chargers and cord for these devices everywhere. I hate opening my drawers and seeing a big mess of wires everywhere so after seeing an idea on Pinterest a long time ago, I got to work on my next project.

I started with some wrapping paper from wallpaper, mod podge, and a coffee can

I washed and stripped the coffee can of it's paper and then placed it on the 

other side of my cutting board because I don't have a craft mat... easier clean up

I love this wrapping paper because it has grid lines on it. It's Hallmark Expressions. 

Made it so much easier for measuring and cutting.

So I measured out and cut the strip of paper

I applied the mod podge with my foundation brush --- don't be shocked it's all I had and I thoroughly cleaned it away! Anyway ... it worked. I didn't have a brush on me or a sponge.

Then, I applied the paper. I suggest you cut it a little bit bigger and then cut with an exacto knife. 

The mod podge was extremely sticky and it went on a little crooked. 

There you have it! A spot for all chargers hidden away but easy to find!
