Can flowers
This is a can flower I made from FOUND cans while walking the dogs. Over 100 cans were used which were cut off at the bottom leaving about 1 - 2 inches. These were then pounded flat and formed with pliers and an anvil into the shape
desired.
A fiberglass bowl was used to rivet the cans (petals) on for the shape of the flower.
It was based on a Chrysanthemum. An aluminum lid was used for the bottom of the flower. BB darts were glued onto the centerpiece which was the knob for the lid.
Aluminum gutters were used for the leaves and an old lamp base was used for the stem.
