I just finished a giant can of Arizona Green Tea and I am in love with the design on the canDoes anyone have any ideas on how I could preserve this can, with a craft project of some sort? I'm thinking of a pencil holder, but I'm not quite sure how to go about it.Thanks in advance )
since its an aluminium can, it should be rust-proof, with a very long life :-) However, if you still need some protection, you could browse the net or check in stores for various sprays, laminators, etcas regards usage, pencil paint-brush holder is a fine practical idea :-) you could also convert it into a vase for artificial, handmade flowers or for reeds, driftwood, etcfor real flower arrangements, place a piece of floral sponge at the base arrange flowers, etcas desiredyou could also add a 'false base-rim' to the can if you think it will make it look prettieryou could do it by upturning any old plate, bowl, etc gluing itthen color decorate so that base body gel togetherhow about making it a candle-holder? either place a large designer candle or multiple slim candlesconvert it into a wish jarmake little notes/tags with wishes [ chores] that you will fulfill [for your family members], inspirational quotations, quips jokes, cartoons, etcYou can color-code them if there are many members, or if, on a particular day, you need some reassurance/motivation want to read a quotationevery day, someone gets to randomly pick a note you can all enjoy what's written or chip in to fulfill that wish/chore/activity/deed, you can also add separators inside the can to compartmentalize itthis way, you can place diff things in diff partsegpencils in one; paint brushes in another; rulers, scissors, stapler, etcin 3rd; gift-wrap paper rolls or bookmarks in 4th so onand of course, you can keep changing its usage placement whenever you tire of one :-) hope some of these ideas inspire all the very best have fun :-))
I'm surprised the person above says viscose is delicateIt is a very commonly used synthetic that has been around for years and is often used in a mix with polyester to give a silky feelIt is unlikely to fade and I have never heard of anyone having an allergy to itWash as cashmere and just enjoy it.
