Our project today is to make the final two things for our St Patrick's day decor and create the mini vignette.
Over the past week, for St Patrick's Day, we have created:

Today, we are crafting a flower vase by upcycling a tin can,
and making a mini pot of gold.
TO MAKE:
Can
Gold spray paint
Wire
Beads
Glue Gun
Fresh flowers and greenery
.
Spray paint the can gold.
Leave to dry.
Cut wire to fit around the can leaving enough extra to twist and tighten the two ends.
Thread the beads onto the wire.
Use the hot glue to position the centre bead.
Put several dobs of glue around the can centre to hold the beads in place.
Carefully twist wire ends together at the back of the can.
Fill with water and add flowers of your choice.
.
Mini Pot of Gold
Small glass pot without lid
(I used a honey taste test pot)
Gold spray paint
A gold gauze jewellery bag
Gold chains and jewellery bits
(I had the broken ones in my stash, but you could buy cheap Dollar Store gold jewellery)
.
Spray paint jar gold.
When the paint is dry, push the gold gauze bag into the pot.
Then take your chosen gold jewellery pieces and drape them over the gauze.
.
Now it is time to put all the St Patrick's Day elements together into one decor vignette.
The base of the St Patrick's vignette is a round rattan place mat.
I used a small wood slice to place under the can vase.
And filled it with golden, yellow and orange flowers, with sprays of foliage.
Then added the shamrock art frame, the little pot of gold and the beaded lucky garland.
The end result is a stylish St Patrick's Day mini vignette.
