Remove any labels and clean the cans thoroughly. Make sure there are no sharp edges on the rim.
Measure and cut a piece of burlap long enough to wrap around the can with a slight overlap. The height should cover most of the can’s surface.
Apply a line of hot glue vertically along the can and attach one edge of the burlap. Then wrap it tightly and glue the other end to secure it in place. Smooth out any wrinkles as you go.
Tie a red ribbon around the middle of each can, finishing it with a small bow. You use a dab of hot glue under the knot to keep it steady.
Attach faux berries, tiny pinecones, or ornaments just beneath the bow for a festive accent. Hold each piece in place for a few seconds until the glue sets.
Let everything cool before using your new containers. You can fill them with flowers, pens, or tealight candles for a warm, rustic glow.
