Using small cat food tins for deodorizing is a quick and easy craft project. The reuse of objects that would otherwise be garbage is considered thrifty fun by many people.
People decorating and reusing the tins, the cat food tins must be washed and dried thoroughly. The cat owner may want to spray the inside and outside of the cat food tins with spray enamel once the tins are completely dry.
Cat food tins can also be decorated with gift wrapping paper, colored paper, or wallpaper. When decorating the tin cans, the person may want to consider which colors are in the desired location for the tin.
There are numerous craft objects that can be used to personalize the recycled cat food tins. Once the cat tins have been sprayed with enamel or covered in paper, the person may want to consider the craft and scrapbooking supplies they have. Small floral accents, decals, metal embellishments, foam shapes, and several common craft materials could be used to decorate the tins.
For areas that have strong odor, the person may want to put white vinegar in the cat food tin and place it in the area. Some cat owners use tins containing vinegar near the litter boxes.
Cotton balls sprayed with a favorite cologne or dipped in pine cleaner can be placed in recycled cat tins to be used as deodorizers. Scented oils can be added to cotton balls placed in a small cat food tin.
Using small cat food tins for deodorizing can be done by decorating the outside of the tins and filling them with potpourri. Potpourri may be made by adding a scent such as vanilla to pine cones or dried flower petals.
Recycled cat food tins can be used as holiday decor accents. Green or red spray enamel can be used for Christmas decor. These tins can hold seasonal potpourri or pine cones.
Coffee beans are an excellent filler for recycled tins for people who enjoy the scent of coffee. After the coffee scent is no longer noticeable, the cat owner can often reactivate the scent by stirring the coffee beans and squeezing some of the beans open.
With a little care, cat food tins could also be used as candleholders. A scented votive candle can be placed in the cat food tin. The tin must be placed on a heat-proof surface since the tin can heat up when the candle is burned.
