Are you ready for some football? Should that even be a question? Whether it’s time to watch the big game in front of the TV with friends or the kids are gearing up for a touchdown on the field, it’s always fun to root for your team. While we may not get crazy with it here, we’ve yet to run around in full-on face paint, we still really enjoy the time spent together with a good game.

Part of getting ready for game day means stocking up on crowd-pleasing snacks. And nothing is more crowd-pleasing than SNICKERS®. I found these football-themed SNICKERS® Bars near the checkout at CVS. I made sure to grab a handful, as well as a couple packs of SNICKERS® Crisper.

Don’t forget to print your CVS digital SNICKERS® coupon! Easy to find and savings, too, CVS is your one stop shop for game day!

With fun sayings like “tackled”, “offensive”, and “defensive” on the SNICKERS® Bars, you can really score with every bite!

Aside from good friends and good snacks, you have to have the right atmosphere for game day. That means easy decorations that make sense with the crowd. Nothing frilly, nothing fancy. But I still happen to think these Felt Football Storage Cans are a pretty cute way to store our party essentials.

Made from regular aluminum soup cans with the label peeled off, I love the idea of using felt because you don’t have to be as meticulous about the label removal as you would if using paint. The felt just goes right over any imperfections. I’m also not a very patient painter, so the felt works much better for someone like me. And by using felt, you can then make little footballs out of the extra brown felt to go on our field cans and then stick them wherever you like on the can. OK, so maybe that’s a little frilly. But so fun!

Felt Football Storage Cans

Supplies needed:

• soup cans – cleaned and tops removed
• brown, green, and white felt
• super glue
• scissors

First, for both styles, measure a piece of either brown felt or green felt to the size of your can and cut to cover.

For the football cans, cut a small strip of white felt and super glue vertically in the center of the brown felt. Snip 4 small pieces of white, about 1/2″ each, for each side and super glue those in place, as well. Then super glue the brown football felt in place around the can.

For the green field can, cut 3 thin strips of white felt lengthwise and super glue in place on the green felt once on top, one in middle, and the other along bottom. Glue the green field felt in place around the can. You can also cut small oval shapes out of the extra brown felt and apply one small 1/2″ strip of white felt in the center for footballs to place around your field.

These Felt Football Storage Cans are great to add some football fun to your next game day celebration while also storing any necessities like silverware, napkins, and of course SNICKERS®. How will you get ready for game day? Be sure to check here for even more winning ideas!
