And she'll never know underneath that super plush velvet-tinfoil-craftpaper-raffia suit he was once a simple Pringles can.
Ah, but Tanny's not the only one with bling for the date. Cris Pringle is going GQ with his Christmas party accessory: a santa hat!
{That's right...if you're going to dress up a Pringle's can to stuff with goodies for Christmas, why not go all the way!}
Oh so very handsome! He's ready for a night on the town! Anyone would think this guy was a great gift.
Together in all their blingy splendor! {can you believe it's aluminum foil?!}
Ooooohh-la-la! I think they're hitting it off! Pin It
And are you ready for the next {tinfoil} move?

Very cute!! What a great idea, I really wouldn't have know that's what it was.
Oh my! Very fun!!! You just gave me a flash-back...
One year, we gave a Christmas bonuse in Pringle can stashed in a snack gift basket.
We gingerly peeled the paper seal off, removed all the chips, put in a wad of cash wrapped in a baggie at the bottom, ate about 3" of chips :-), put the rest back in, carefully re-sealed it with a bit of glue and popped the plastic lid back on. He was none-the-wiser.
He LOVED Pringles and went for those first. Popped opened the can and began eating the chips...Man, was he surprised when he got to the bottom!!! I LOVE surprises!!!
Thanks for sharing and bringing back good Holiday memories...
Hi Christina!
Thanks so much for stopping by. I love your blog and your approach to creativity. Poked around a bit and adore your holiday decorations and gift bags. I hope I can find a couple hours to make some gift bags and use them in place of cardboard boxes. Your winter wonderland posts are great inspiration too. Following you. Happy Holidays!
I just became a new follower too! I love how you glamified a Pringles can! My kinda upcycle - and with a sense of humor too!
Oh, these are so cute. Great repurposing.
Very cute. Great upcycling, such a cute result. Happy Holidays!

This is such a cute idea! Our neighbors are huge pringles fans so I will have to try and score some of their extra cans.
Merry Christmas!
I love the way you did that can, very pretty! I did the same thing, but just used plain paper to cover it, I love all the detail you used!
Isn't that just the cutest thing... I am LOVING that cute little Santa's Hat... I would love for you to share it here http://shoprubyjean.com/2011/12/sew-crafty-tuesday-linky-2-and-highlights/
He is just so handsome! You crack me up! Thanks for the giggle tonight and have a Merry Christmas!
You sure are rocking the recycle world. Great looking pieces you have created.
Merry Christmas

i seriously need to get my hands on one of those crimper things!
I loved seeing your pringle project...what a beautiful job you did creating -- so excellent. Your covered Pringle tin reminded me of a tip on Pinterest...the tins make perfect containers for holding spaghetti. Great gift with a bottle of sauce for that Pasta loving friend or family member....Merry Christmas!I have joined your followers list and would love to have you join me as well. Hugs, Gayle
