Altered Paint Cans

I made these altered paint cans to give as gifts this year. The large one is for Evan's teacher and will be filled with homemade cookies and a card with the class gift inside. The small cans are for the Starbucks stores to thank them for giving us their Kemps milk caps.

We had a wonderful weekend in Galena! We had so much fun and laughed and laughed. It was supposed to be a girls weekend, but we let Uncle Jim join us. And truth be told, I don't know if we would have laughed as much with out him. Many, many thanks, Aunt Sharon and Uncle Jim for a wonderful weekend.
