When it’s too hot to cook inside, you’ll have everything you need on hand to fire up the grill with this DIY Charcoal Storage and Free Printable! We like to stock up on charcoal when summer begins so that we can quickly get the grill going for an easy meal. But it’s hard to keep charcoal safe and dry in the paper bags that it comes in. I decided to turn a metal trash can into DIY Charcoal Storage by adding a bit of flair to it. It would make the perfect Father’s Day gift for the man in your life! I picked up the Kingsford Original Twinpack from The Home Depot to fill up our charcoal storage. From 6/18 to 6/21, you can get the Kingsford Original Twinpack for $9.88 — more than half off the original price! I also found the metal trash can at The Home Depot in the Garden section — they had a ton of different options, but I decided on this one because of the locking lid.
