Materials:

• Large coffee can with lid, cleaned out
• Wall paper sample book
• Craft Glue, Aleene's Designer Tacky Glue works well
• Scissors
• Markers
• Odds and ends for decorations

Directions:

Give each girl a coffee can and depending on the size of the wall paper book 1-2 sheets of wall paper. Have the girls trim and glue the paper on the can making sure the upper metal lip is not covered. Let the girls decorate the can with ribbons, buttons, sequines etc and then write something like "My Girl Scout Treasures" on it.

The girls can keep their badge sashes, pins, extra patches, keep badges/try-its not yet sewn on, maybe even a cap. That way everything that is small is in the same place.
