Save your empties through the months then decorate with Silhouette paper cutouts. For this project, protein powder cannisters were used (approx. 5 1/2" tall x 4" diameter).
This shot shows how the decorations are arranged on the cannister.
Here you see the ingredients for this project. A complete list is given at the end of the post.
Silhouette cutouts include the 12 Days of Christmas ornaments from Snapdragon Snippets (see size and other details in the larger project post on this blog), and a scallop border. Cut other paper strips and squares with rotary tools.
Add metal corners to a paper covered chip board square. Push corners snuggly into place, then crimp the square slightly onto board to secure.
Twelve canisters don't make a perfect pyramid! In the usual arrangement, four rows will use 10 canisters -- just add an extra on each side of the base row to include all 12!

empty canisters

paper for gift name strips, cream twill tape, red eyelets
