If you need a center piece fast, try this quick upcycle of a can.
I used a few 28 oz. tomato cans that were heading to the recycling bin after making a sauce, but any can will work (coffee, soup, etc.).
Wash the can and remove the label. Cut some scrap lace one inch longer and one inch wider than the can. I found mine at a yard sale. You could also use a cloth napkin, hankie or fabric leftover from a project.
Hot glue the lace to the can lining up the bottom edges.
Overlap the lace on the back of the can and hot glue it down,
Fold down the extra lace at the top edge of the can and tie on some ribbon, twine or floss. This is one of those projects where you can use whatever you have on hand.
Add your favorite flowers with some water. That is it… so quick… so easy. You could give one to a special Mom for Mother’s Day and keep one for yourself.

What a wonderful idea! And so inexpensive, too! I love lace, I have cans and a glue gun… why didn’t I think of this? Thanks for the inspiration!
