#DIY Tin Can Utensil Holder
Looking for an easy and creative way to organize utensils for summer picnics & gatherings? Start saving those tin cans and create your own utensil holder!
You will need six tin cans and one block of wood (11″x 6″) to start off.
Choose a color and paint the wood block and the tin cans. I did not paint the inside of the cans so that the paint would not chip off on the eating utensils.
You will need to buy a handle to place on the top of the wood block. I purchased this one at Lowe’s.
I was going to have my husband teach me how to use the power drill for the next couple of steps, but we never found the time. So I pulled out the old-fashioned screwdriver & hammer and attached the handle and tin cans.
I made the holes in the cans & wood before attaching them to make sure they were lined up evenly.
Add your silverware and enjoy your new & creative utensil holder!
Blessings~

Great idea! I was going to make something like this for my jewelry tools, but I can never find a block of wood. It looks like you glued 2 pieces of 2×4 together. Is that correct?
