Recycle paper straws and tin cans into handmade healing vases

I love paper straws, their bright colors and cute patterns make them an integral part of most parties.

Sharing a super simple tutorial on recycling waste, using paper straws and iron cans to make a beautiful vase. All you need to do is cut the straws to the right length and glue them to the surface of the tin. Take a little time while watching TV or when you are bored, and you can finish it in no time!~

1. First, remove the label on the iron can and clean it. Once you're done, paint the jar in the basic color of your chosen straw. This helps hide any imperfections that may occur when gluing the straw down.

2. Now measure and cut the straw. I cut them into various lengths, some exactly the height of the jar, some shorter, some longer.

3. Glue the paper straw to the iron can so that the bottom is flush and the top is staggered.
