Tin Can Tea Light Holders...

So, I promised I would try the tin can tea light holder thing over the weekend. I had a go last night, but to be honest, I think my freehand skills leave a lot to be desired. 
I would recommend either creating your own SYMMETRICAL design, or finding one online, like a dot to dot and using that. 
My freehand wasn't a total disaster, it worked, it just did not look right. IT NEEDS TO BE SYMMETRICAL!
Also, when hitting my can with my hammer and nail, I found that chips of ice were flicking out everywhere! I think you should either clingfilm the top, or wrap in an old towel, that you don't mind getting trashed!
Unfortunately, as I was late up this morning, I didn't get time to photograph the can in it's current state. At the moment, it is still unpainted. When I get home from work, I will be taking some photos and I will email them in, so please excuse the format.

On another note, I start my new job tomorrow, so the posts may reduce slightly.

If you have any tips or advice you would like to share, or any questions, please feel free to drop me an email at donvavitoink@hotmail.co.uk

I don't want this just to be a silly girl rabbiting on, so please, any contributions will be greatly appreciated! 

Twitter will also soon be set up, so that I can update live from any events I happen to be part of / attending!



Thanks guys and gals!
