I REALLY like these lil containers. They are soooooo cute!!! Im definitely going to try this. Ive just got to get some tools together first. Im so excited!!! 💕
I LOVE this!!! I found your channel just this afternoon and have watched several tutorials already. The first one I watched was the original one for this project. I was HOOKED. I went on and just found this one. I absolutely sat here and felt almost giddy...LOL. Thanks so much for sharing your talents with us all.
Found this originally on Pinterest, LOVE your written article there. So glad I followed through to youtube. Keep doing your thing, your way, from a grateful new subscriber.
These are awesome. You were making me nervous not having gloves on so you didn't get cut. I'm on to watching another of your videos. Thanks for sharing with us.
Hi Marguerite - I like to live dangerously 🙂🙂🙂 Actually the cans aren't very dangerous but you can get a nasty paper cut from them. Thanks for watching.
Hi thanks for watching. Yes I have used a regular can opener on occasion but sometimes it tears into the side of the can so I prefer the draft top since I have it. You can also remove the tops with sand paper. The video below shows how and also compares all three methods if you are interested. 🙂 th-cam.com/video/4onyQNbZcSs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lSTVnScWLCYhmS1Z
SUGGESTION: Cut the two half pieces to desired size. Put the bottom half in the freezer for 15 minutes. At the same time, put the top half in very hot water. Cold will shrink while hot will expand. When assembled and sitting at room temp, they will be heat-shrunk permanently, huh? How cool is that? Very!
I absolutely love the citronella candle holders you've made! I've made the aluminum beads from your tutorial, everyone loves them! I shared your video in a fb group as well.
Thank you for your ideas i have no budget and can only afford the up cycle materials thank you for helping me achieve decorating on no budget id rather upcycle and save my footprint rather than purchase anyways
The patina on the ones with the candles in is gorgeous, the copper too. I also liked the addition of the chain. Just one negative point…wayyyy too much talking and preamble which is not needed. Most people who would be interested in making these, don’t need as much advice or pre instructions. Anyone who needs this much detail should not be permitted to handle sharp objects.
Polite question … how is this in any way environmentally friendly when you are suggesting all you need is an aerosol spray, two types of glue, a couple of single-purpose gadgets (probably manufactured in China and shipped thousands of miles)? Is this not just greenwashing? And what will be the lifespan of the objects you’re making? There are many more craft projects which are biodegradable and much less harmful to the environment.
Hi Jackie - I am not sure I understand your criticism. If you think it is greenwashing that is your prerogative. I am not an environmentalists I am merely a crafter sharing things that can be made from items that are normally discarded.
Absolutely beautiful ❤
Thanks 😊

BRILLIANT on so many levels! ♥

You can also use a can opener!
Yes you can use a traditional can opener but in my experience it sometimes damages the can. Thanks for watching 😊

A regular can opener also works for removing the tops.

Hi Cathy - I am so happy to hear you enjoyed some of my tutorials and have tried some projects. Thanks so much for sharing my video. Happy New Year!
Thank you for your ideas i have no budget and can only afford the up cycle materials thank you for helping me achieve decorating on no budget id rather upcycle and save my footprint rather than purchase anyways
You are very welcome. I am happy you enjoy my projects. Thanks for watching. 🙂
I found your channel thru the home talk emails! I love upcycling stuff like this!!! I seriously need to try this for a cute fall project!
Thanks David - enjoy 🙂
How about adding 4 tabs as fancy mini pot feet?
Well I hadn't thought of that but I love the idea. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
This is a great project! Love it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 😊
Why did you remove the top of the can if you were going to just glue it back on? I'm confused.
Hi the top is still removable. The part that is glued on is just to make the lid look more rounded. 🙂
The patina on the ones with the candles in is gorgeous, the copper too. I also liked the addition of the chain. Just one negative point…wayyyy too much talking and preamble which is not needed. Most people who would be interested in making these, don’t need as much advice or pre instructions.

6:24: "i'm just gonna bend them to a 45 degree angle." .. bends the tabs to 90 degrees. SAKES
Sorry I misspoke.

Perhaps you don’t recycle in the US as you describe aluminium as ‘trash’?
