TIN snips

The Creative Girls got together today for our June meeting....

........and we cut TIN!


We cut off the tops and bottoms of soda cans and beer cans and found that the metal is so thin and easy to cut that we could make all kinds of things!
Here is a look at some of the stuff we made:

birds cut from Arizona Iced Tea cans

an unfinished piece

a Tecate butterfly

Beth's cut-outs
butterfly, flaming sacred heart, bird and
Virgin of Guadalupe

4 Guadalupes
all different, pretty cool

  1. lovely. you should check out the Autsralian artist Fiona Hall - she is a wonderful, ever changing artist who did a series of beautiful cut tin sculptures, made from coke cans - see the link below:

  2. WELL DONE JONE! I LIKE THE WAY THE PRINT ON THE TIN ADDS TO THE DESIGN TOO - ANYTHING THAT RE-USES STUFF IS A GOOD THING IN MY BOOK.
