On this lovely Thursday, I want to extend the life of these
aluminum cans:

They're quite blah, don't you think?

But if you take a hammer & a nail to make
a few holes all around the can...

And add in a votive candle; light it up...

TADA! Instant luminaries!

Just imagine how a bunch of these can
make your garden glow!
Have a nice day!
This is lovely! I have two empty bean cans that I can put to use this weekend.
ReplyDeleteTada, indeed :).
ReplyDeleteI've been collecting ideas for a late summer dinner I'll have in the garden and I can see the walls around my garden filled with these whimsical lights.
Lovely! Thanks for sharing,

Thank you for visiting Sachinky! Enjoy this fun craft :)
ReplyDeleteHi Teresa! A late summer dinner party sounds very magical. I wish you great weather and everything delicious! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is gorgeous! I need lights like that for my deck! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThey cast off pretty patterns depending on the size of the hole you make. Happy you like it Paskalily!
ReplyDeleteHi! I read somewhere that if you fill the cans with water & freeze them before you poke the holes in them, they should be easier to work with & will help the cans keep their shape! Thanks again for everything! =^)
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful tip! Thanks Lindy! :)
