SWANS using CANs

I learnt this, during one of the "Green and Clean Week", an event organised at Singapore. Swans using CANs. Very simple one .... - Cut the top portion and discard. - Cut the body into thin strips, till the bottom. - Carefully roll into desired shapes as shown in the picture - Tin won't cut since they are too thin and flexible. However, guide your kids if they are doing it. I am submitting this to the CAN Art Event Waiting for your entries :)

'CAN Art' Event - September 2008

We buy CANs (Pepsi, Coke, 100 Plus, Tiger beer, etc) and trash them each time. Why not try something creative out of them .... So this month we will try this CAN ART!!! Open your creative minds and make something out of CANs, be it pen stand, or mug or toys or anything creative ..... and follow these simple rules: 1) Make anything creative out of "CANs", take pictures, publish in your blog with a link to this event and add the LOGO. 2) Email your name, picture, link to the post, to illatharasi at gmail dot com (illatharasi@gmail.com), once you are done. 3) Deadline : September 30, 2008 4) Those who dont have a blog, please email your picture to illatharasi at gmail dot com. All the best!!! Waiting for your creations!!!
