Recycle Tin Cans into Vases

Looking for a way to recycle your tin cans? Or looking for a diy vase? Well, Design Sponge has a tutorial on how to create this beautiful birch bark tin can vase. I love how birch looks. If you don’t have a birch tree around you can do a search for birch bark sheets and you will find places that sell it. Design Sponge has some other great ideas for recycling tin cans into vases.

Pom Pom Flowers

Do you have a hard time parting with your leftover yarn scraps? Well these Pom Pom Flowers are a great way to use up that last bit of yarn. I  came across the blog Domestifluff and saw these crafty flowers. They would make a really pretty decoration if you put them in a vase. I could also see using the pom poms as a hair tie.

Felt Dandelions

I found another great diy flower tutorial for felt dandelions over at Echoes of a Dream. They actually look pretty realistic next to the real thing. All you need for this tutorial is some green and yellow felt, a pipe cleaner and florist tape or green wool. The dandelions would make for a great decoration and you don’t have to worry about them wilting.

Origami Cherry Blossoms

I am really loving the craft tutorials over at The Flirty Guide! They have come up with a tutorial for these beautiful origami cherry blossoms. These would look great as centerpieces at a wedding or to simply decorate your home. I could just picture them in a kitchen window. All you need is some origami paper, crepe paper, tacky glue and dried willow branches. They have posted a great step-by-step tutorial on how to create the origami flowers.
