I've been blessed with THRIVE Life in my life for about 2 1/2 years now. That equates to a lot of yummy meals and snacks. It also equates to a lot of awesome cans to up-cycle!
My most recent adventures in up-cycling THRIVE Life cans (both the #10 (or Family) size and the Pantry Can size) was making Halloween Goodie Containers! It was a lot of fun.
Fact: I don't have an artistic bone in my body.
But that doesn't mean I can't venture to try -- and still manage to come up with something cutesie!
I did all the painting, since it was acrylic paints (and let the kids paint with tempura paint to keep them happy ;)). Then my sweet girl helped me glue on the eyeballs for the monster eye can! Then, on Halloween, I baked up some monster eye cookies (colored with THRIVE Raspberries, Blueberries, and Spinach Fruit Crisps which I had powdered!) and we put them in a plastic gallon bag and in the monster eye can!
My Frankenstein monster reminds me less of Frankenstein and more of Kif from Futurama. Haha. But oh well ;). We stuffed them with candy!
So I love finding new ways to up-cycle my THRIVE Life cans! And I'm pretty sure I'm going to start doing more of these so I can give them as gifts around Halloween! And goodness knows I won't have a can shortage ;)!
