Creative Crafts Made from Aluminium Can/ Tin

Nowadays, everyone is getting more environmentally concious and it's advisable to think twice before we throw away used stuffs into rubbish bin. Many slogans related to saving our Earth and Mother Nature include " Go Green", " Save Our Earth", " Eco-future", and etc had been emphasized on the importance of being environmental friendly and committing environmental responsibility towards our environment. Going green can be very meaningful rather than becoming an avid recycler of CDs, cardboard, boxes, papers and plastic bottles. Instead of throwing out the old CDs, cardboard, boxes, papers and plastic bags, we can recycle them into great craft projects and reuse them for art.

When we open up a tin can or can drink, we normally toss it into rubbish bin or step or crash it into trash. Making use of these old or used tin to create interesting and creative crafts could be very fun! During my Creativity and Innovation class, we had been asked to use a discarded soft-drink tin can to make some creative art projects. This total marks for this project will be 10 marks, hence we started to crack our brain to stimulate thinking around this course project.

It's amazing to find creative and innovative art crafts during the submission day. With just few simple steps, we can easily turn our used tin cans into home-made art crafts which can be used as decorative or utilitarian items for home and gift-giving. Let's see how my class's crafty people turned a used tin can into creative art crafts with simple ways.

Creating art crafts from recyclable tin cans not only helps in protecting our environment, but also produce some useful items which you can decorate your home and workplace apart form stimulating your brain to think innovatively.

In short, aluminium cans are ubiquitous. Let's don't trash them but turn them into some creative art crafts =)
