What You Will Need

  • 3 tin cans
  • Faux Concrete Paint Finish
  • pouncer brushes
  • Twine

Instructions

  • Start with clean, dry cans with the labels removed.
  • Use a pouncer brush to apply one coat of the light colored concrete paint that is in the package. Allow that to dry completely.
  • Add a second coat of the light concrete color with the pouncer brush. Go over the light coat with a little of the dark coat and work it in slightly. This is where the video is really helpful!
  • Continue until all three cans are complete and then allow them to dry.Once dry, add a bit of hot glue between each can to hold them together.
  • Then wrap all the way around with twine a few times and tie off in the front.Y
