Dishwashing Detergent Canister

i'm trying to get my BFF on the frugal pathway...my BFF husband is laughing about it...he said, what are you gonna do next?? separate your toliet paper and make 2 rolls?? no, not hardly...i'll stick to my scott tissue...

as you might know, i make alot of my own homemade cleaners...i started out with the laundry detergent...moved right along to the dishwashing detergent...i've been using it for about 8 or so months...i've tried several different recipes..the one that i'm using now is the best for me...i have very hard water...

i decided to surprise her and make the detergent and a canister to put it in...since i'm broke (and she is too) i'm making it out of a coffee can...you might think this is super cheap...it is super cheap...i paid  NOTHING for it...

the idea is to get her to use it and like it...and save her tons of money...and my BFF husband tons of money...i couldn't just send it home with her in an ugly old coffee can...

i measured the can, which was about 6 inches high...i then cut some wrapping paper that i had previously bought at the dollar tree...i mod podged it on...printed and cut a label...podged it on...

this post is for the super frugal crafter...LOL...
