Lizzy ... could you screw each can through the bottom onto a board then hang the board to the wall. Also ... a can opener that removes the lids and doesn't leave sharp edges on either the can orthe lid.

I've been saving tin can to make funky shelves for about a year. I've seen some really cute ideas out there. What I can't seem to find? Suggestion on how to bind the cans togethers for strength. Any suggestions?

Wowza Maven, you found some awesome ideas! Thanks.

I have to add that I must be old because it wasn't my grampa, but my Daddy that used the jar lid screwed under the shelf idea to store nuts and bolts in jars. It's a great one though.
