I appreciate the time you spent making those beautiful flowers! They are wonderful! I have some of the homeless guys that walk by here saving me their large size beer cans. They go to a homeless center for lunch several blocks away, and stop and tell me how nice my flowers and 'things' look. My garden is next to a busy US Hiway-lots of car and walking traffic. I haven't done can flowers yet, but did cut some can butterflies. I am working on plastic bottles flowers while watching tv now. |

| I love your flowers!! I'm trying my hand at it but now I would like to paint one. What kind of paint did you use? I used E6000 to glue them together and hope it sticks. |

I have cut 10 or 12 since you posted this. Thanks for showing us. Right now I am waiting to see where the hurricane will go--looks like it is coming right to us. I will have to go out and take down my bird cages, lay my totems on the ground, or move them in. I hope my bottle tree survives! Wish me luck! |

| nonacook, I certainly hope the hurricane misses you completely. I'll keep good thoughts going out to you. Marilyn |

Thanks, Flowers! Will know and tell more later today on the conversations side. |

| How do you cut the beer cans? Does your hands get cut up? Do you paint them first before cutting the cans? Those are so pretty! |

| Here is my version of Nanatricia's flower. I used 2- 12 oz cans. Next time I will use 3, I think. I've made many flowers using the bottoms of cans, concave side facing out, but for some reason never thought of using the dome side facing out. Next time I make one, I'll make the fringe a little longer. I spray paint my pieces after cutting them & before assembling them. |
