DIY Kids Paint Holder Upcycled
I don’t know about you, but it’s SO much cheaper to buy paint in bulk. But continuing to put paint onto paper plates is tiring, wasteful and MESSY! Don’t know what to do with all of those kids medicine cups? Here’s an easy DIY to use all of those old cups taking up space! Wash, reuse, recycle and UPCYCLE into a fun DIY Kids Paint holder. Ready to find out how?
What You Will Need:
- Small Plastic Medicine Cups (usually included with liquid kids medicine)
- Hot Glue Gun
- Kids Paint
Directions:
- Dot the top rim of the medicine cups with glue.
- Attach to other medicine cups. I find with just 1 medicine cup, the paint is more likely to slide across the table (aka more messy)! So with the reinforced idea, these cups had no problem staying put!
Want to make them even stronger? Find a cheap reusable top (like from a take out container) and glue to the bottom!
My son sure has fun painting with his new Medicine Cup Kids Paint Holder! We get to save and reuse for more FUN days! Would love if you would pin this easy and frugal DIY!
