Clear Accent Card. Use clear scrapbooking embellishments to add quick detail to a card. Die-cut flowers from a transparency, then adhere small colorful circles to the end of each petal. Attach a fabric scrap to the center to easily express your sentiment.
Recycle empty paint cans with other metals. If dried paint fills a can to a depth of about a half inch or less, dry it in the can and recycle the paint can. If you have a more-or-less full can of dried latex paint, unfortunately, the next step is to remove the lid and toss the whole can in with the trash. We agree.
Shares & Saves. Save. You've got the right color paint, a clean brush and an afternoon of free time, so the only thing between your woodwork and a fresh coat of paint is the paint lid. The best way to get it off is to use a painter's three-in-one tool, but you can also remove it with a screwdriver.pening an old can of paint with a slightly deformed lid that's welded to the can by dried paint is a challenge. A pair of needle-nose pliers comes in handy in this situation. Grip the edge of the rim and bend it upwards and pull a little.
