EcoHeidi Borchers digs into her recycle bin to create super cool flowers from cardboard coffee cups. Attach a gift card to the tag and you have a fun gift for a special friend, teacher or hostess gift. Featured on EcoHeidi TV on the Cool2Craft Network.

Watch Heidi’s super fun Coffee Cup Rose YouTube video tutorial!

Materials:

2 Cardboard coffee cups with corrugated cardboard sleeves
Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue (Use for lasting hold )
Glue gun (Use together with the Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue for a quick hold)
Acrylic paints
Brush
Wooden skewer stick
Toothpick
Cardboard tag

	To begin to shape cup into a flower, press in at the sides.

	Continue to press cup down by pushing the sides in and the bottom of the cup down.

	When cup is completely squished down, it should look something like this.

	To help hold, use a toothpick to apply small amounts of glue the folds of the cup.

	To make the center of the rose, cut a 2″ x 3″ section of the rim of the cup.

	Place Tacky Glue at the bottom edge and roll with rim at the top of the flower.

	Add a small amount of the hot glue to the Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue. Roll into tight bud for center of flower. The hot glue will hold it quickly, the Tacky Glue will hold it forever :)

	Using both glues, glue this bud into the center of the flower. Let glue dry.

	For the stem, insert a wooden skewer to the back of the flower. Place a small amount of glue to hold skewer in place.

	Using several different shades of pink and red acrylic paints, brush several layers of paint until cardboard cup is covered completely.

	Paint the wooden skewer stem green. Cut the leaves as shown from the corrugated cardboard sleeve. Paint leaves green. Let paint dry.

	Glue leaves to the stem. To give as a gift, make a gift tag, and tie into place on the stem. Make tag large enough that you could attach a gift card to the back of tag.

Paper Coffee Cup Flowers by Candace Jedrowicz

2-13-12 Candace Coffee Cup Flower Bouquet

Share/Bookmark

Candace Jedrowicz has created eco flowers using paper coffee cups, wire from a drop ceiling and metallic powder mixed with Aleene’s Clear Gel Tacky Glue. Way too fun! Featured on EcoHeidi TV on the Cool2Craft Network.

Watch Candace’s fun and easy Paper Coffee Cup Flower YouTube video tutorial!

Materials:

Paper coffee cups
Die cut machine with flower dies or flower punches
16 gauge wire – mine was left over from installing a drop ceiling
Aleene’s Clear Gel Tacky Glue
Metallic powder colors
Qtips
Buttons

	To get your coffee cup ready to punch or run through the die cutter, take off the rim and bottom then open the paper flat. Cut with flower die.

	Pour a small amount of metallic powder in a cup bottom.

	Add enough Aleene’s Clear Gel Tacky Glue to the powder to make it spreadable. Use Qtip to stir and paint your flowers.

	Some paper cups have more wax than others so the color may bead up. I let them dry and added more color for a pleasantly mottled look.

	Cut 9″ to 12″ pieces of wire for each stem. I used polymer clay buttons colored with craft foil for the flower centers. Wrap a small spiral in one end of the wire and thread the uncoiled end through the front of the button.

	Leave about 1″of the wire straight and coil the rest around a pencil or other rod, leaving about 2″ straight at the bottom.

	I arranged my flowers in three groups according to length. Choose one of the stems to wrap around the others to hold the bunch together.

Share/Bookmark

EcoHeidi transforms colorful soda cans into pretty floral box toppers. And, soda can pieces create an intriguing mosaic pattern! Featured on EcoHeidi TV on the Cool2Craft Network.

Watch Heidi’s fun and fabulous Soda Can Flower Box YouTube video tutorial!

Materials:

Aleene’s Tacky Dot Singles – Medium or Large size
Soda cans
Craft knife
Circle template
Cereal cardboard for flower petal template/pattern
Scissors (use an old pair of scissors for this project)
Stylus
Craft foam

	Use craft knife to cut off top and bottom of soda can.Please note: For each flower, you will want a different color can for each petal.

	Place the cut soda can onto piece of craft foam. Using a stylus and a circle template, draw circles onto the can. You will need 5 circles of various sizes (approximately 1/4″ less for each size) and colors for each flower.

	Using old scissors, cut out each circle.

	Make a flower pattern from cardboard for 4 of the different size circles. An eight petal flower is easy and works great. Place the cardboard flower template over each circle and mark the petals using the stylus.

	Cut out each flower, making sure all cut edges are rounded. It is important to keep all your cut edges rounded so that you have no sharp edges.

	Place cut flower petal, color side down, onto the craft foam. Using the stylus, press into the petal and make marks or ‘veins’ onto each petal.

	Turn flower petal over, color side up and repeat on this side. Repeat for all of the petals.

	The smallest circle will be the center of the flower. Cut small slits all around the circle.

	To adhere the petal layers together, place one Aleene’s Tacky Dot in between each flower layer and one dot in the center.

	Place a bead into center petal and press onto the Aleene’s Tacky Dot. Carefully lift up and shape the petals around the bead. If needed, round edges of petal with scissors to remove any sharp edges. To create the mosaic look on the box lid with the soda can pieces, use one Aleene’s Tacky Dot Single for attaching each soda can piece.

EcoHeidi Borchers creates the prettiest flower garden on canvas featuring flowers made from ribbon spools! Painted with acrylic paint, these florals brighten up any room! Featured on EcoHeidi TV on the Cool2Craft Network.

Watch Heidi’s super cool Ribbon Spool Flower YouTube video tutorial!

Materials:

Cardboard ribbon spools (you will need one for each flower plus one for leaves and stem)
Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue
Board for background (I used Masonite from a tile sample board)
Acrylic paints
Brush- 1/2″ wide flat
Buttons- for flower centers
Dimensional texture for background (I used Texture Magic)
Notched comb for texture
Aleene’s Spray Sealer – Matte or Gloss finish

	Select several different sizes and widths of ribbon spools for this project.

	To make each flower, carefully take a cardboard spool apart by removing the circle sides of the spool. Repeat with another narrower spool for leaf and stem.

	You will now have three pieces for each spool. To make the flower, cut the two spool circles into a flower shape.

	With second narrow spool, cut the tube to make the stem. (The ends of the spool will be used to cut the leaves.)

	Smooth and press out the stem. Be sure to cut off any excess paper still remaining on the sides of the spool you tore apart.

	Select several complementary colors of acrylic paint and brush onto each flower, leaf and stem. Let dry. If necessary, repeat with second coat.

	Paint the center tube of the spool for the flower.

	Glue the two flowers back in place on the spool center with the Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue.

	For the background, I squeegeed the dimensional paint over the masonite.Use a notched comb to create the lines in the dimensional paint. Let dry.Paint the background using the acrylic paints. Place the assembled spool flowers, leaves and stems onto the background.

	Glue all pieces to the background using the Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue.

	Glue several sizes of buttons for the center of each flower. To seal, spray entire piece with the Aleene’s Spray Sealer. Let dry.

Wire and Fabric Retro Flower by EcoHeidi Borchers

Share/Bookmark

EcoHeidi Borchers shares how to make this vintage vibe retro Momma Aleene fabric flower. Lots of great history with this flower because it was this technique that inspired Aleene to formulate her world-famous Aleene’s Tacky Glue! Featured on EcoHeidi TV.

Watch Heidi’s super cool Fabric & Wire Retro Flower YouTube video tutorial!

Materials

Aleene’s Turbo Tacky in the Tacky Pack
Drink bottle cap (for bending wire)
18 gauge wire (approximately 8″ for each petal)
Fabric (I used upholstery and sweater fabrics on my flower)
Scissors
Needle and thread (to create fabric yoyo for flower center)
Polyfil (for flower center)
Florist tape – green
Wood skewer (for flower stem)
Wire and beads (optional for flower center)

	Select drink bottle cap to create desired size for petal. If desired, you can paint wire with black acrylic paint (or any color desired).

	Bend wire around bottle cap to help form top edge of petal shape.

	Twist ends of wire to form petal shape.

	Apply Aleene’s Turbo Tacky Glue to the wire.

	Press wire onto the right side of fabric. I like to line up the twisted end of the petal with the edge of my fabric because it makes it easier to cut when the glue is dry. Use your fingernail or toothpick to remove excess glue from fabric. You want to the glue to hold to the fabric but you don’t want too much excess glue. Set aside to dry. Repeat to create 5 petals per flower.

	When the glue is dry, cut away excess fabric from outside of wire petal.

	Apply line of glue to back edge of fabric and press onto next layer of fabric. Let dry for about 10 minutes.

	Cut away excess fabric leaving approximately 1/4″ to create layered fabric look, tapering away fabric as you reach the twisted wire.

	Cut circle of fabric from fabric (I used sweater material). Sew running stitch approximately 3/8″ from edge. Pull stitch to create yoyo shape, insert polyfil and then pull stitching tight. Knot thread to hold in place.

	Bend ends of petal wires down. Gather 5 petals together.

	To hold petals together, wrap wires with florist tape. Place wooden stick next to wrapped wires and attach by wrapping with florist tape.

	Adjust petals as desired. Apply Aleene’s Turbo Tacky Glue to center of flower.

	Press flower center into glue with seam side down.

	To create leaf, bend wire into desired shape. Glue onto fabric. Let glue dry completely before cutting fabric along wire line. On this sample, I also added fringed fabric and wired beads to the center of my flower. To finish the stem, tear strip of green fabric approximately 1″ wide. Apply dab of glue to end of fabric and begin wrapping around stem, securing with glue every few inches. Secure at end with glue and cut off excess.

EcoHeidi Borchers shows how to transform plastic drink bottles into eco-art. Check out your favorite drink bottles and find out which feature the best embossed designs. Wire together bottle bottoms, tops and sides to create wall art or room dividers for just pennies. Featured on EcoHeidi TV.

Watch Heidi’s super cool Plastic Bottle Room Divider YouTube video tutorial!

Materials

Plastic drink bottles
Craft knife
Scissors
Acrylic paint (colors of your choice)
Cosmetic sponge (for applying paint)
Drill with 1/16″ drill bit
Hole punch
22 gauge wire (colors of your choice)
Round nose pliers
Wire cutters
Beads
Mirror and tile pieces

	I love to find plastic drink bottles that have intriguing designs embossed onto the sides! I don’t drink sodas so I ask my friends to keep their eyes open for fun bottles!

	Use a craft knife to puncture the side of the bottle and cut apart.

	Use scissors to cut out the side panel pieces and to clean up the cut edges of the bottle tops and the bottoms.

	Apply acrylic paint with cosmetic sponge by dabbing onto the inside (wrong side) of the plastic bottle. It may take several coats of paint to get a solid opaque coverage.

	Use the same painting procedure to paint the inside of the bottle bottom.

	Arrange the bottle pieces in desired pattern. Punch or drill holes into the pieces.

	To create the swirl in the end of the wire, use pliers to roll end and then continue to roll with fingers until you have created swirl of desired size. Cut wire to desired length to join two pieces together.

	Insert cut end of wire through punched hole in water bottle. Loop wire around swirl to secure.

	Add beads to wire.

	If desired add other embellishments to wire. I found these doves at the dollar store. I drilled through them to turn them into beads.

	Secure both ends of beaded and embellished wire to bottle pieces. Continue add more pieces to create desired length. I join my pieces together for wall hangings by looping the top wire onto a dowel stick.

	Here’s a close up of a bottle cap. I glued mirror tiles and a flat backed marble to the top.

	On the bottle bottom, I glued a white flat backed marble.

	On the bottle side piece, I glued vintage look mirror tiles.

	You can arrange rows and rows of these to create wall art or keep going and make a room divider!

Glue Art Canvas by Candace Jedrowicz

January 3, 2012 By cjedrowicz 4 Comments

Share/Bookmark

Candace Jedrowicz is crafting up eco-home decorations using cardboard and Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue on canvas. Add a candle flame and you’ve got yourself a vintage Aleene’s technique called Burnt Brown Bag! Now Candace is bringing it with metallic powders, because that’s how she rolls! Featured on EcoHeidi TV.

Watch Candace;s fun and fabulous Glue Art Canvas YouTube video tutorial!

Materials:

Canvases – four any size
Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue
Cardboard
Sponge brush
Scissors
Candle and matches
Metallic powders – I used blue, green and copper
Gold Rub n Buff
Heat gun

	Cut your cardboard design pieces and set them aside. I cut cardboard to make two wavy designs and two angular designs.

	Completely cover the canvas with Aleene’s Tacky Glue.

	Place designs on canvas and cover with glue. Allow to dry.

	When the glue is dry, set up your candle and get ready to move fast. Cover 1/4 of the canvas with glue.

	Hold the glued area directly over the flame but keep it moving! Keep it moving until the glue is no longer shiny and has a black sooty appearance.The glue will bubble and crackle and create interesting texture. In this photo I turned the canvas over to show the glue turning black. You’ll want to keep the wet glue area directly over the flame.

	Continue adding glue and burning until the entire canvas is black and sooty. This is how the burned canvas should look. Flat black with a few shiny areas.

	Use a wet or dry cloth to gently wipe off the soot. If you break through the skin of the burned glue to reveal white glue just re-burn that area. (P.S. If desired, you can let the glue dry completely overnight before wiping off the soot.)

	This photo shows two of the designs – one finished and one unfinished.The unfinished surface on the right is really wonderful by itself, but I specifically wanted to try the metallic powder as a finish.

	Use a moist paper towel or wet wipe to pick up the powder and dab it on the canvas.

	To set the powders, heat with a heat gun for several seconds. Keep checking it by touching the surface. It’s done when there is no color on your fingers.

	Finish with gold Rub n Buff on some edges and textures. Allow to dry.

	Here are my finished canvases. I hope you’ll try this method and send me photos! candace@cool2craft.com – I’ll share them on my blog page!

Soda Can Fish Sculpture by EcoHeidi Borchers

January 3, 2012 By Tiffany Windsor Leave a Comment

Share/Bookmark

EcoHeidi Borchers transforms soda cans into eco-art for the home! It’s easy to cut,emboss and glue to create any sculpture designs. Featured on EcoHeidi TV.

Watch Heidi’s super cool Soda Can Fish Sculpture YouTube video tutorial!

Materials

Aleene’s Liquid Fusion Glue
Soda cans
Craft knife
Fish pattern (or pattern of your choice)
Stylus (with ball point tip)
Scissors (I use dollar store scissors to cut my soda cans)
Alcohol inks
Paint brush
Toothpicks (or wooden skewers) to glue to seaweed
Clothespins

	Use craft knife to remove top and bottom from soda can. Use scissors to cut along seam to open can.

	Lay pattern on inside (silver) side of soda can and trace with stylus.

	Use scissors to cut along pattern line. (I have a lot of people ask me if the soda can is sharp. My suggestion is to always round any corners and cut in smooth strokes so that there are no “nibs” of soda can which can be sharp and can snag.)

	Turn cut design over and gently run fingers over surface to help to flatten design. At this step, the design will not lay down completely flat but it does help to coax it to flatten slightly at this step.

	Place design silver side up on craft foam. Draw desired detail patterns with stylus on silver side.

	Your design lines can be as easy as squiggles!

	Turn design over and trace alongside pattern lines. This will create a raised effect to your design on the silver side. This step will also help to flatten your design.

	Drop alcohol inks onto design and use brush to blend colors together.

	Cut seaweed strips from scraps of soda can (or from new can). Add design lines with stylus.

	Glue toothpick or skewer onto back of seaweed.

	Use clothespin to hold toothpick in place while glue is drying.

	For the base of my sculpture, I smashed a soda can until it was flat.

	Determine placement for seaweed and punch smashed can with tip of craft knife.

	Dip end of toothpick into glue and insert seaweed into hole(s).

	Repeat until desired design is achieved. To attach fish, determine placement on seaweed. Apply glue and use clothespins to hold in place while glue dries completely.

	Here’s a mini version! Using the same technique, I created this small fish pin.

Blue Bling Earrings by Candace Jedrowicz

Candace Jedrowicz is like a bird when it comes to shiny, colorful objects. A blue water bottle caught her eye and the creative recycle bling wheels were set in motion. Candace shows how to create gorgeous blue and copper earrings from a water bottle, rubber stamps, a heat tool and copper wire. Featured on EcoHeidi TV.

Watch the entire Green Bling Episode of EcoHeidi TV

Materials:

Blue water bottle
Craft knife
Scissors
Rubber stamp
Copper pigment ink
Needle tool
Wire cutters
Chain nose pliers
Round nose pliers
1/8″ Hole punch
20 Gauge wire

	Keep both circles and squares with the curved side down during the whole process. Cut two 1″ circles and two 1″ squares from the bottle.Punch 1 hole at the top of the circles and 3 holes at the bottom.

	Cut each square into 3 odd shapes for the dangles.

	Punch a hole in the top of each dangle.

	Ink the stamp with the pigment ink and press both circles on to the stamp. Lay the dangles together to stamp.

	Holding each piece with a needle tool, heat with the heat tool held about 5″ from the table. Keep the heat on until the piece curls up a bit.

	Use the needle tool to gently press the piece while heating with the heat gun, until it is only slightly curved. If the ink rubs off, it needs more heat. Keep the heat at a 5″ distance until the ink looks super shiny.

	Use 6 jump rings to attach the dangles to the circles.

	Use 2 pliers to hold each jump ring. Bend the ends of the ring to the side, slide a dangle and one hole of the circle onto the ring and close tightly.

	Cut a 2 1/2″ wire for each ear wire. Using the round nose pliers make a ring on one end.

	Bend the wire perpendicular to the ring.

	Slide the circle onto the ring and close. Slide a tiny bit of coiled wire on the wire and make a sharp bend above the coil so it won’t slide off.

	Bend the remainder of the wire over the handle of a pair of pliers. Gently sand the sharp edges of the wire ends.

Bigger than Big Pendant by EcoHeidi Borchers

Share/Bookmark

Inspired by the BIG style in fashion catalogs,EcoHeidi Borchers found a super cool way to recycle drink bottle bottoms into fashionable BIG pendants! Featured on EcoHeidi TV!

Watch the entire Green Bling episode of EcoHeidi TV

Materials

Plastic drink bottle -with interesting bottom!
Smooth sided plastic bottle – for jewelry bail
Craft knife
Scissors
Paint pen (or acrylic paint) to color in detail
Acrylic paint – black (or other background color of your choice)
Cosmetic sponge
Small hole punch (for rivet)
Small craft rivet
Rivet setter
Flat backed marble or other flat backed stone (optional for center of pendant)
Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue (optional to glue marble in place)

	Use craft knife to carefully puncture side of bottle. Cut off bottle bottom.

	Working on the inside of the bottle (the wrong side) use paint pen to color in recessed design areas.

	If desired, add paint dots along outside edge.

	Pour small puddle of black acrylic paint onto palette. Dab cosmetic sponge into paint. Dab on inside of bottle bottom to begin painting entire inside surface.

	This is what the black paint looks like after one coat. As you can see, it takes several coats of paint on the plastic to get an opaque finish.

	To create bail, cut strip from smooth side of plastic bottle approximately 3″ x 1″. Paint on back side with black paint. Fold in half and punch holes at cut end approximately 1/4″ from edge.

	Determine placement of bail on pendant and punch hole in pendant to match holes in bail. Line up folded bail over punched hole in pendant and insert rivet from the outside.

	Use rivet tool to set rivet to attach bail to pendant.

	String pendant as desired. Also, if desired, glue flat back marble to center of pendant for added design element.
