Organize your Christmas cards in a pretty display made from a recycled Pringles can.

Pringle Can Christmas Card Display


Supplies:

  • pringles can

  • ball of red yarn

  • thin ribbon

  • ribbon roses

  • Christmas cards

  • hot glue

  • white yarn for crocheted ruffle, or pregathered lace


Instructions:

1. Remove the bottom of a Pringles can. Take a ball of red yarn and glue the end strand on the inside top of the can. Begin covering the can with yarn by pushing the ball of yarn through the inside the can, up the outside of the can and down through the middle again until the canister is completely covered in taut strings of yarn. Cut the yarn and glue the end string to the inside of the can.

2. To make a crocheted ruffle, Ch 37 and then turn, 2 double crochet in first chain from hook, then chain one and repeat in each chain until you get to the other end. Fasten off.

If preferred, use a length of pregathered lace for the ruffle.

Glue the ruffle, ruffled side down, around the top of the can. Glue another length of ruffle, ruffled side up, around the bottom of the can.

3. If desired, make ribbon bows from lengths of green thin ribbon. Glue the bows, equally spacedm, around the ruffle. Glue a red ribbon rose to each green ribbon.

4. Display Christmas cards by sliding the back of each card under a few strings of yarn around the can, as shown in the photo. Enjoy!
