Hi, Mary: A non-toxic way to get rid of the glue from labels off cans and glass is 1tablespoon coconut oil mixed with 1 tablespoon Baking soda. It makes a paste that you spread onto the glued areas after you take off the labels from being soked. Let the paste sit for @10 minutes then wash off with hot soapy water. It's really amazing@

@hollyingraham3980 2 ай бұрын

Most cans with paper labels are only glued at the seam. You tear off almost all the label, dry, then use any cheap oily substance to remove the glued bit.

Cool! ❤ 🙂

@ricebeansrockroll882 2 ай бұрын

Another thing to do is a) a paper towel with some oil on (just leave it on the can) or b) peanutbutter.

Great job! To remove the glue..mix a little baking soda with some vegetable oil to make a paste. Put it on the glue and let it sit for a minute or two and clean off with a paper towel..then wash off the oil. It works great. I use it all the time!

@@lorrem2539I agree. As much as we’re paying for the contents of the container, we should at least get a useable container, not something that will melt in the dishwasher. If we can turn it into something to sell at least it would help to pay for the container. What do you all think? ♥️🙏🏻

A can converted into a birdhouse is pretty, but the summer heat - even if it is placed in the shade- turns it into an oven and the birds can suffocate to death. Poor little things 😢

Everything you make Mary is beautiful. 😍 I went through a phase of decopaging empty cans. The other day I went to a big thrift shop here in Germany. Sometimes they have a big bin at the front door with free things in it. I pick up things to up cycle. My partner has zero creativity and cannot fathom why I pick up what I do. I am also creative and can visualise what I can do with something. I picked up a can that had beautiful crochet around the tin, but it had an empty area at the top. The tin was not spray painted, so that is my next project. Just spray the tin and put back the crochet bands on. Then I will use my tin to put paint brushes in. Your candles in tins look lovely. The bird house is darling. 👋💖

My sister had one make a nest in an old garden hat she hung on her porch. She left it alone and bought a new hat that year. We watched that little wren build up her nest and raise her babies. So fun!

Tin can crafting is a favorite so this video was so perfect! So many of the soup size cans have round bottoms that you can’t use a can opener on, so I use a hammer and screwdriver to put a crease in them and then step on them to make the pockets. It works pretty well. The cat food cans would be a fun size for 2 or 3 wick candles, too.
