From Vintage Tin to Dog Food Storage with Chalkboard Label

   For the past few months, I have been looking at this old potato chip tin, trying to decide on a use for it. 

   This week, I decided to use it as cute storage for my dog food. I simply applied a couple of coats of Krylon Cherry Red spray paint. While waiting on this paint to dry, I searched my desk drawer for the perfect sized label. I actually decided to use one of these Priority mail labels.

   I applied a couple of coats of Chalkboard paint to the label, placed it accordingly on the container and added this little applique, because it looks like my little Schnauzers! :) 

   Now, I have a brand new container for storing my dog food! If I ever want to use it for something else, all I have to do is erase my little chalkboard, and write whatever I am using it for on the label. Pretty cool, huh?   You know what's even better? My total cost for this project was $0! Everything I used I already had! I absolutely LOVE projects like that! I'm thinking that may update it with a Chevron print soon. I will let you know if I do!  :)
