Don't know where to keep your spaghetti? Sick of ugly cardboard boxes taking up space in the kitchen? Here is a tip on how to get some good looking extra storage with minimum effort!
Take a cylinder from a wine, or in this case a Champagne bottle. Spray paint it in the color of your choice. I find that you get the best result if you can get your hands on a cylinder with some kind of pattern or writing in the metal itself - it gives a bit of extra detail and a hint of where the item comes from.
I made this one last weekend in matte white and I will use it to store the espresso coffee buttons that we use in melody. Easy, cheap, stylish and friendly towards the environment!

SvarSlettoh my gosh! i love this idea!
SvarSlettI don't like it...I love it... such a cute idea :)
SvarSlettThat's so cute!! Now I just have to find cylindrical wine! haha
SvarSlettThat's such a great idea! It would be perfect for storing my tea bags, I always just leave them in the box they come in.
SvarSlettLove your blog, newest follower! ♥
I certainly do like - that's so chic!
SvarSlettI love pretty containers of all kinds! Maybe having these will inspire me to eat pasta!
SvarSlettI like this idea! Really cute and really savvy.
SvarSlettGreat idea!!!!
SvarSlettHave a nice evening

you're a genius, I was just cursing the spaghetti the other day!
SvarSlettAnd yes, if you get a white & serene summer house I'll definitely come visit. Well, let's be honest here: you'll never get rid of me! ;-)
That's just brilliant, sweetie! I will most definitely be giving this a shot. Not sure how well mine will turn out but yours is most definitely an inspiration :) xoxo
SvarSlettkicking myself for throwing a good few such tins out recently (after deciding they just didn't cut the mustard as extra storage as they weren't pretty enough)
SvarSlettfoolish...

Så lurt! Kjempefint dette da :)
SvarSlettWhat a clever idea-and so chic!
SvarSlettWhat a great idea!! I love it and want to do it once we move. Hopefully they sell spray paint in Kentucky - you have to drive to the suburbs of Chicago to purchase it, can you believe that?!
SvarSlettwatch out Martha! This is a great craft idea
SvarSlettThat's a great idea! I use cylinders like that too, but some of them are hideous, haha:) This makes them look lovely!
SvarSlettVery cute idea :)
SvarSlettKjempesmart!!
SvarSlettSå fin den ble:)
Gorgeous! I love it! I've wanted to do some vases like this for awhile!
