{Copper pipe flower vase}
March is National Craft month. Naturally I wanted to find a way to celebrate–so with the help of several blog friends we’re giving you a whole month of craft ideas! I present to you the A-Z of Craft Month series.
Every Tuesday this month I’ll post a new list of talented bloggers who have each taken one letter of the alphabet with the assignment to create a project based on that letter. Please go visit them!
Since I had the letter C I headed to Home Depot and picked up the following items:
- copper air chamber (12 x 1/2 inch) ~$2
- package of tube clips (1/2 inch) ~$2
- a piece of wood from their discount pile ~75c
- some small screws ~$1
Position the tube and clips on the wood and attach with screws.
The last step is to make it stand up. I cut a small block of wood, painted it gray, and glued it to the back about 1/8 inch above the bottom, so it will lean back just a tiny bit when it’s sitting. I used E6000 adhesive and clamped it for 3 hours.
Add in a bit of water, a few blossoms, and your beautiful copper vase is ready to display.
Do you like it? What do you think I should do with the leftover 5 inch tube?
