Make use of those empty coffee cans you have lying around to create charming fall decor! I will show you how to craft my coffee can scarecrow, perfect for placing on either your mantelpiece or front porch.
Why this project works:
Because recycling! I have always enjoyed creating something out of old objects. You might already have most of these supplies on hand!
Untiring to create the look, most crafters will likely be able to collect a variety of buttons, felt pieces, twine, and raffia for use as accessories for their miniature hat!
These step by step photos and instructions are meant to help you visualize how to create this project. Simply scroll down and print off these instructions!
Add lid to coffee can, and cover it with tan felt using craft glue.
Place coffee can on its side and use instant grab glue or E6000 to pipe on the mouth. Cut twine to fit on top of glue smile and press in place; use remaining twine pieces cut in 1-inch pieces as stitch-type attachments using instant grab glue for the remaining pieces.
Cut a triangle of orange felt and use instant grab glue to adhere it above the smile on the face. Additionally, use instant grab glue to adhere two buttons as eyes.
