I do recycle a lot and I had theses Arizona cans and I wanted to make then into something that I would keep. So I made them similar to a lantern only they are made out of cans. Always try and recycle cans to help the environment. everything I used here is aluminum cans and gems in the center of the flowers I made using a Tim Holtz die (Tattered Florals). The y look wonderful in the dark using disposable battery operated candles. 

"Recycle Cans, use it up, Wear it out, make it do or do without."

Hand made Floral Crowns. I will soon make a tutorial on these. I'm still making a few more but more unique and differently. They look so wonderful to me and it was fun and time consuming to make these. Here are the materials I used.

• Floral tape - Green and Brown
• Wire Cutters
• Scissors 
• Any Size Gauge Wire
• Beads any size (I used pearls)
• Flowers of your Choice

Baby Carriages

I always wanted to know how to make a baby carriage for a baby shower as a center piece. I've searched youtube and none really got my attention. I came across a blog and saw the picture. So I tried it on my own. it was difficult because I didn't know the measurements. Finally after two tries I accomplished it!. Made a few and they came out beautiful.

This was my second try, and i made this one for a baby shower.  They became center pieces.

                                   

 This one was my fist try. Took me a while to get the ideas.Came out very beautiful.
