Hello everyone! This project was inspired when I saw the PERFECT container that I wanted to get, Ikea’s series called TILLSLUTA. I was so exicted to go to their webiste and purchase some! Until I found out they no longer sold them…. I’m still so sad just writing this! haha. Since then I have been on the hunt for some like the cute containers, but I literally found nothing that could come close to them. So I decided if I couldn’t find them, I’d try to make some! To clarify, these are REPURPOSED containers, Ikea doesn’t sell them like this! Also to note, the way I made these-THEY ARE ONLY FOR DRY GOODS! I cut off the snaps and took of the blue ‘seal’ that keeps it air tight. But also to clarify, you can keep them on if you want to! But I didn’t love how many clamps you had to snap to open them. These are the 11 gallon 365+ line of containers. This project is a little time consuming, but totally worth it! Here’s what you’ll need: Ikea’s 365+Line, 11 quart Containers White matte Spray Paint Clear Spray Paint Sealer Tape What I did: I first cut off the ‘snaps’ with my Husbands Razor Sharp blade (be extremely careful!) and removed the blue seal it comes with. Next I taped off the lid and the inside of the canister (no one wants those nasty chemicals IN the container! I evenly spray painted the top of the lid, and the only the outer part of the container. Do this in even layers (I did about three or four layers!) Then I let them dry and carefully removed the tape! Now these containers aren’t perfect, but they are cute and functional for what I needed for dry storage! The scoops I got from a wonderful Etsy shop and I love them! They are made so well and he’s wonderful to work with, if you want some like this I would highly recommend these! I got the cherry wood.
