Recycle and decorate for Fall

Create beautiful luminarias to light the way to your door, or give as heartfelt, homemade gifts! These also look beautiful strung in a line from a porch overhang.
Take several large, clean cans that are all the same size.
Fill the cans halfway with water and place in the freezer until the water is just frozen (be careful - if you leave them in too long, the ice may expand the cans).
With a wax crayon, draw a pattern onto the can.
Using a hammer and a nail, punch holes along the pattern lines.
Remove the ice, insert a candle and voila! Beautiful luminarias to greet your guests.
