Recycled Pringles Can “Pull Me” Gift Kits for Any Occassion
I have seen a few Pringles can cookie tins on Pinterest. They are cleverly wrapped and hold the perfect sized cookie. I’ve seen them wrapped with Christmas paper complete with a bow and I’ve seen them wrapped like a Mummy for Halloween. These lovely ideas inspired me to create these Recycled Pringles Can Gift Kits with a “pull me” tag and ribbon. The long vertical shape is perfect for this.
Use this idea for:
- Birthday Gifts
- In lieu of an Easter Basket
- For Mother’s or Father’s Day Gifts
- Clever Way to Wrap a Wedding or Bridal Shower Gift
- Christmas Gift Wrapping for a Gift Card
- For Party Favors
Here are the cans I used.
Time: 30 Minutes
Materials:
- Clean and empty Pringles cans
- Scrapbook paper
- Paper cutter (optional)
- Scissors
- Marker
- Hot glue and glue gun or double sided tape
- Ribbon
Instructions:
I made these nail kits for a teenage girl in four easy steps.
STEP 1: Choose your gift.
STEP 2: Make a “pull me” tag. You can cut one out of paper scraps. I used a tag shaped craft punch.
STEP 3: Tie all your gifts together with ribbon
STEP 4: Insert them into your decorated Pringles can.
Change up the colors and patterns to fit the person’s style and the contents. Here are some other fun ides for what to put inside.

Wow! What a cute idea! I just had to click and check this out, as it happens, I bought a can of Pringles for my daughter for the first time yesterday! Now the “junk food guilt” can subside, as I have something awesome to make from the soon to be empty can! I love the “pull me” tag!

Thank you, Debbye! I’m almost at “hoarder status” with my empty food container addiction! 😉
Yes, me too! If only I had the room to store them all in my tiny kitchen or overflowing laundry room! I love what you did with the recycled food storage gift boxes too! Lovely!
This is such a fantastic idea. I think I will be using this idea for giving a stack of cookies for Christmas. Great post!
