Altered Pringles box

Hello!  I’ve altered Pringles cans before, but this time I made one laying on it’s side.  I’ve used Pion Design’s newest collections, Days Gone By and Our Furry Friends which match nicely together.  I picked up the hardware from Hobby Lobby.  It’s an easy project but makes for a uniquely special  box.  You can also find this project posted on the Pion Design blog here.


I am more of a cat person so I tend to use the kitten images from the collection more than the dog ones, but all are pretty cute!  Here is a picture of our family cat Sheba:

Best wishes for a great day!

      Hi Linny, thank you for your inspirational comment! My husband loved it when I told him I needed to make a project with the Pringles can – it gave him an excuse to eat the whole can! :). Have a great week! Tara

    Sooo soooo gorgeous work here again Tara, and these papers are just perfect for it. I´ve also made quite a few of these, though not so many of them this size. 4 years ago I made 3 like this out of toiletrolls for our granddaughters confirmations, where they each got one of these in their favoritcolor with a piece of jewelry inside, and they still have them to this day. I made a couple of this size as pencilholders with the girls a couple years ago, and they were definitely a hit too, but yours are really gorgeous with these lovely papers. I´m blown away once again.

    This is just beautiful. Do you have instructions on how to make it?

    1. Tara Brown

      Hi Judy, Thank you for your kind comment! Here’s how I made the project:
      1. draw a straight line down the long side of the can and then carefully use a sharp craft knife to cut this straight line.
      2. On the opposite side of the can, draw another straight line and then score this line firmly to allow the can to open up and fold back.
      3. Remove the top and bottom round pieces of the can. Use them to trace around thick chipboard. Cut out the round chipboard pieces and then use a hot glue gun to glue the pieces to the bottom end of the box (as pictured).
      3. Cover the project with Pion Design papers.
      4. apply a metal clasp to keep the box closed (I picked mine up from Hobby Lobby) and painted wood ball knobs for the feet.
      It’s an easy project but makes a uniquely special box!
