Morph an iced tea can into décor so chic - it's hard to believe this was 'trash'

When it comes to finding the perfect home decor, the process can be daunting and expensive. However, with a bit of frugal creativity, you can make your very own decorations that are not only unique, but can be crafted with nothing more than a tin can.

Forget spending hours in a department store looking at decorations you've seen before. Instead, bust out a hot glue gun and get to work! Before you throw out your next can, let's take a look at what you could turn them into:

A sharp box cutter, a tin can, and paint is all that you need to kickstart this DIY wall art. Once you got all the supplies together, the rest of it is pretty much up to you. You can essentially craft any type of flower with any color scheme that is perfect for your home.

You can even get a bit creative with how you mount the flowers. According to Purple Hues and Me, a similar product costs $895! You can definitely save a few bucks by doing this one yourself.

If you are looking for a more elaborate piece, Purple Hues offers this idea. This DIY project requires a bit more painting and artistic skill, but the 3D effect of the tin flowers and cardboard vase offer just the right touch to make your decor stand out.

Don't limit yourself to wall art! You can even spruce up your door with this terrific soda can leaf wreath. Saved By Love Creations offers the tip of wrapping the cardboard in a coordinating color of duct tape to prolong the life of an outdoor wreath.

And it's not just the actual can that can be transformed into a work of art. The soda tabs can be used to create a beautiful pendent light. It may just take a while to collect enough tabs! The 3 R's Blog showcases just how modern this piece can look once it's complete.

Next time you drink a can of soda, think about the endless possibilities for creating awesome home decor! Start saving your cans to do your next DIY project. Remember to share with your friends to keep them inspired, too.
