The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Tuesday, April 22, 2008Soda Can Candle Tray Take one of those mirrors from IKEA, paint it. The take some heavy-duty shears and cut off the top and bottom of a pop can. Smooth out the center, very carefuly so you don't cut yourself. In fact, wear garden gloves for this project just to be safe! On the silver side, draw flowers with a Sharpie. Cut them out. Now repeat, making smaller flowers to go in the center of the other ones. Use upholstery tacks or short nails to secure them to the wood frame. Add crystals in between the flowers. And now you have a cute candle tray! I used Mexican juice cans, but you can use any kind you want. *** CLICK HERE to see my crafty videos at LifetimeTV.com!

I'm a mommy, wifey, artist, author & left-handed middle-child binge crafter Sagittarian. I love chocolate, coffee, and I collect Chihuahua stuff (we have 4 live ones). I have my own product line coming out this summer. I write a weekly nationally syndicated craft column for The Arizona Republic. My 7th craft book comes out next year, as well as my first novel. I make a line of Chicano Pop Art with my hubby and we have sold it all over the country since 1990. Doing my best to live in the moment and savor it all!   Note to visitors: Hola! This site is the archive of all my past projects for Gannett News Service and The Arizona Republic. These ideas are for personal use only. I make a living as a craft designer, so I will be using these ideas in my published works. If you are thinking of selling or using these ideas for profit, please give respect and "twist" them to make them your own - put your own stamp on them to make them different. It will work out for the best for both of us! Thank you and much respect from one creative person to another! — Kathy Have a burning crafty question? Visit my Ask Crafty Chica blog or drop me a line!
