DIY Re-purposed Can Lego Head

by

Have you seen those cute LEGO head storage jars at the store? Every time I’m at the store and see those LEGO storage jars, I wish my kiddos were young enough to have one. Recently, I emptied a square yellow container of corn starch and as I was walking to the recycling bin, it hit me, Hey!, I could make my own DIY repurposed can LEGO Head storage jar for free! Not only was this cutie free, but it only took about 10 minutes to make. It’s also simple enough and fun enough for your kiddo to make.
