Make a garden lantern
Transform unwanted tin cans into romantic garden lighting, perfect for hanging from a tree or sturdy shrub branches for a candlelit dinner outside
You'll need:
empty cans
wire
beads
hammer and nail
Once the can's empty, simply remove the label, wash clean, and carefully pierce holes in the can, either randomly or forming a pattern.
Leave the tin unpainted or spray-paint it. To make the handle, punch two holes opposite each other just below the rim of the can and attach a length of wire to one side, then thread with coloured beads and fix to the opposite side.
