When my mother was still here and young in the early 60s, a friend of her and mom wrote a book, "Trash to Treasurers." My mother was making crafts and recycling when it wasn't the popular thing to do. Her friend, who has also passed did the illustrations and writing and mom did all the ideas and finished items for her friend to draw for the book. They made some money from it. Not filthy rich, but they did pretty good. When the book came out, they had to fight with some people trying to use mom and her friend's title on their books. Mom's friend and her won. Mom didn't want money. She just wanted them to stop using their title because it was interfering with their profits. Once it was settled, mom and friend did finally start making a little more money. They are both gone now and somewhere in all my lifetime of totes I have a copy of that book. I was probably about 12 or 13 when they wrote that book so some of the details are blurry. I did however babysit her friend's two sons and my little sister so they could finish the book. My mother was very much like you. She could take absolutely nothing and turn it into something wonderful. Give that woman a bleach jug and it became an Easter Basket when people didn't do such things and a very cute basket at that. She made Christmas tree ornaments out of bits of this and that and made quite a bit of money. She did the Sunday morning craft every week with the kids at Sunday school at the church. She couldn't draw a stick figure but give her things and she would make the most wonderful pieces. You would have had fun with her Patti. I did. I miss her. Thanks for sharing as always. You are remarkable.
Thank you so much Kathy, what a beautiful story. I bet she was incredible. That is so awesome that your mom and her friend wrote a book. I crafted with my grandmother from age 5 and she taught me alot about making things from items we had on hand. We spent lots of time together crafting. Great memories. Thank you so much for sharing your story. Have a blessed week.
Thank you for sharing her story! I loved doing those types of things with my mom. I remember watching her take pheasant feathers and making a ladies hat.
Patti! ❤ I am renovating a 150 year old house i found a very old funnel and a few 1950s tins recently. I've been trying to figure out just how to put my tin man together so he will last. Thank you so much for this video. Frank L Baum is my favorite author. This is perfect! ❤
That's awesome. I would love to renovate a 150 year old house. I just finished renovating our 52 year old home. I'm glad you are going to make the tin man. I should have sealed mine because it is already rusting LOL.
I absolutely love them both! What a great idea! I don’t drink coffee but I live in a 55plus mobile home park so I am sure someone would have one. Thank you for your hard work and stay safe!
Love these two adorable projects! My sister loves the Wizard of Oz. She’d love the tin man. May have to save some cans from the landfill and make one for her garden. Thanks for sharing!
Patti. Your last little message at the end of this video felt like a message from God if you believe in such things. I was talking to my son who has had so much heartache recently hospitalised 5 times last year and one this, then other dreadful events. I said to him I feel as if God is telling us well here comes another blow to deal with. Put the phone down and heard your message. Sometimes we don’t realise how much our words can mean to others. So thank you 💕. Needed that today.
Thank you so much for this comment. I am a believer, and could not live my life without God in it. During hard times, I just turn all my troubles over to him and pray very often. I am sorry that your son is going through hardtimes right now. I will pray for him, and I will pray for strength for you my friend.
I've made several of these a few years ago, and I have to paint it every 3 years or so and recolor his heart, because out in the weather it rust some. But I absolutely love it. Now I've got something else in mind to make, which will be just as easy. I love the tin man.
Both the well and the tin man are sooooooo cute. I will now start collecting cams. Everytime I watch one of your videos, i am amazed at projects you come up with. Just love watching. If no one has told you today, you are awesome. ❤
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I am saving just about everything now trying to find uses for things I just throw away. It's a fun challenge.
✍Hello...Back in the 50s and going to summer Bible School we made a wishing well planter using a Maxwell House coffee can (MWH Coffee made a tin of coffee half the size of the can you're using) We covered the tin with rough twine then varnished it. The roof was made with 2 pieces of thin wood glued together in a peak and wrapped with covered with the same twine and varnished and then we added a small house plant. Yours is really pretty. Good Night😴 God Bless. Bye from NE Ohio
Thank you so much. I love these stories. Summer Bible School was a lot of fun when I was younger. We did a ton of arts and crafts. I always looked forward to going. Have a blessed week.
The tin man is so adorable. He will be so cute in the garden!😅 sorry I haven't been around lately but I'm trying to totally change my craft room. It's a disaster! LOL😂 PLUS NOW CAMPING 😮😅
Metal coffee cans no longer exist, so I've saved a few old ones. Now I'm looking for projects. When I was a kid, coffee cans were receptacles for marbles, pennies, plants, popsicle sticks, etc.
If you have one of those crank can openers that makes smooth edges when you open the can, a good one to save is tuna cans. The lids fit back on them after they are open and they can be decorated. I use them in my art space for all sorts of small items that would otherwise be in one big mess in a box. They are great for projects with kids too. I bleach them to make sure the tuna smell is out of them.
Thanks Nicole. I just watched some of your snack crate videos, and OMG, you and your friend are so funny. I had a great time watching. I subscribed to your channel.
Both projects are really cute but I loved the Tin Man! Great job on both and once again, I appreciate how you explain the step process. I'm going to save my tin cans!! 🙂💜💜😅
Hi Patti, I haven’t watched one of your videos for a little while, I’ve been too busy but I’ll catch up. You are so talented. I love all you’ve done in your video but the tin man is so awesome. I’ll have to start saving some more tin cans as I stopped keeping them but you have such great ideas. Thanks for your videos, I love them.

Both of these are really cute! My favorite is the wishing well planter.
Thank you! 😊
That tin man is so cute!
That tin man is wonderful. He couldn’t be any cuter. He can stand there and give the birds somewhere to roost for short periods.
Thank you. I did see a bird on him yesterday LOL.
Love these two adorable projects! My sister loves the Wizard of Oz. She’d love the tin man. May have to save some cans from the landfill and make one for her garden. Thanks for sharing!

@@kathybrigger9431 Thanks.
@@zyxw2000 You are most welcome.
I use one of those can openers. Works great. You can use the cans without worrying about cutting yourself. Great invention.
Love your channel and I love your projects. Your Tin Man looks like a good beginning for a wooden soldier for Christmas.
Thank you. That is a great idea.
Great projects as always
So so talented. I don't know how you come up with these ideas. Love love the tin mam.
