Upcycling: decorated tin cans

Painted tin planters with retro style

Empty used containers are often far too good to throw away when there are so many exciting ways to upcycle them – like this idea for making trendy herb pots, for instance, using upcycled tin cans. Use edding Permanent Spray to personalise them any way you want by adding your own colourful designs. To create a beautiful striped effect on your tin can plant pots, we recommend the masking technique as it produces striking patterns with precise, clean edges.

Krok po kroku

Krok 1

Carefully remove the paper label from the used cans and wash them. First, cover the whole can with a coat of paint in Classy Mauve. Hold the spray can at a distance of about 25 cm and spray with horizontal and vertical strokes.

Krok 2

Leave to dry for around 30 mins. Once dry, use tape to mask off areas you want to protect when applying the next coat of paint. Spray the exposed areas with edding Rust Effect paint and allow to dry thoroughly.
