    Tin Can Wind Chime Craft

    We had so much fun making this Tin Can Wind Chime Craft.  If you are looking for summer craft Tin Can Wind Chimes are a great way to recycle your tin cans and beat the summer boredom blues. Trust me everyone will enjoy making this fun craft and it is a great way to recycle and upcycle too.

    Tin Can Wind Chime Craft

    Supplies:

    • Tempera Paint
    • Paint Brushes
    • Newspaper
    • Embroidery Hoop (Wooden or Plastic)
    • Fishing Line
    • 1 Washer
    • 3 Nuts
    • Gorilla Glue
    • Empty Tin Cans

    To Make:

    1.  Collect empty tin cans used in cooking.  Wash and dry.
    2.  Put down newspaper and wear an apron or old t-shirt to protect clothing
    3.  Paint the tin cans and allow to dry (add designs if you want)
    4.  Paint Embroidery Hoop if using wood or choose a colorful plastic one
    5.  After the cans have dried place a hole in the top of each can and attach fishing line with a nut through the bottom.
    6. Attach tin cans to the embroidery hoop using fishing line, use gorilla glue to secure.
    7.  Using a washer create a hanger at the top.
    8.  Enjoy the clanking of the tin cans in the wind.

    This is an affordable summer project!  I picked up my paint, paintbrushes and embroidery hoop at my local Michael's - using a 40% off coupon of course 🙂  I love being able to recycle the tin cans.

    Disclosure: Michael's provided a gift card for me to purchase supplies however all opinions are 100% my own.
