Not Exactly Garden Art... A very creative friend inspired me to re-use aluminum soda cans, so I punched out some shapes with my Sizzix die cutter. Then they sat in a recycled plastic cup in my studio for a couple of months. Until the birds started eating our tomatoes, and I got the idea of stringing the shapes up in the garden in hopes they would catch the light and keep the birds away. My Mother used to hang metal pie plates in her vegetable garden to keep the critters away. I wouldn't exactly call these garden art, but we'll see if they can save some tomatoes for us to eat.
