Recycling Used Cans


You would often feel dizzy how to utilize used goods, such as canned milk, bread, or anything else. You do not have to immediately throw it away. With a little creativity and perseverance, you too can make something more useful from it. You also can use it to be used as a pencil container, trash, laundry or other place.

The materials required are: tin cans, white paint, pencil or pen, acrylic paint. The first thing to prepare is no tin cans as the main ingredient to be used again. Take the tin cans, then washed thoroughly, both the inside and the outside. This is meant to remove dirt, either ex-food, oil or dust on the cans to be used. After the cans cleaned, then dried in order to perform the next process. 

After the cans are clean and dry, and then tin plating process is carried out using white paint. 
The white color was chosen because the color is neutral so that the next color painting process will be easier and the result would be a maximum, and at once to coat the brand of used cans.


After the cans coated in white, then dried with aerated. The next step is to paint cans by using a pencil or pen. The pattern image is to your taste. You can create images of animals, flowers, landscapes, cartoon characters, numbers, letters, or abstract patterns that you like. Once a pattern is illustrated in cans, you can paint it using acrylic paint. Color for each motif was in accordance with your favorite. However, if you recycle cans for your child, you can use bright colors and 'ngejreng' because the kids love it when their goods. 

Since this is the recycling process and and made a 'handmade', the result was special. Nothing is the same. This is one of the advantages to make their own patterns. When you invite your children to recycle tin cans in the house, this will help stimulate your child's creativity. And they would be proud of their own work. So, take advantage of tin cans in your house. And you too can be creative with it.
