Metal Wall Art, Decor it Yourself

For those who want a more "finished" product, you can find  3'x2' sheets of a thicker, higher grade aluminum for like 4 bucks (!) at your local hardware store.  You can easily cut it with scissors too!

I sooooo love the red pancho your wearing, did you make it?

Very simple, ware do u get a sautering iron though?

Wow, you are so rad to take on soldering! You just made midcentury modern possible!

woah, soldering! fancy. the end results look so great.

Great ideas!  Thanks for sharing with us!

New verb: "Kanyed" - the act of infringing uon & dishonoring the person/object of respect by interrupting for selfish purposes.

Use: girrrrrrl the punk just kanyed ur ass!! 

:)

Puppies!

I hate Kanyay too

i did a project in elementery that remindes me of this etcept we used alumuim foil we took like a poster paper and put elmers glue  on it and waited a day for it to dry then we wraped the foil in it and glued it down pressing it to the "patterns we hardened" before it came out pritty cool

you could also not turn the cans over and have a colorful metal wall sculpture! use a buncha different soda cans and make some cool shapes!

LOL that dog is ALWAYS sleeping.

I love the squares layered,, i;m so doing that for my upstairs...but out of wood i think ^_^

That dog will sleep anywhere...

I love Decor It Yourself!! It's definitely my favorite Threadbanger show! :)
I had an idea for the cans... you could tape a picture to the back of the can and then trace it... I'm going to test it out, I'll be sure to post pics!

I am so gonna make a cape like hers....now
I like how she says 'da earth

you guys make me smile :-)

That rectangle piece was wonderful! Would it be the same technique at the tree piece?

Wow, that wall structure is so fantastic!

Plus hilarious Kanye/Taylor/Beyonce thing...

i had a feeling that kanye was gonna be put in this somehow, nice remake

i love how you guys related the beginning of your show to the vma's
the kayne west and taylor swift part was histerical

that's an awesome idea!

Thought I was gonna die laughing there at the beginning.  

Meg, you are just so clever.  Now you're soldering!  Wow!  Great project!

Loving all the mid-century modern projects!

love this ep.

Hilarious and INCREDIBLE tutorial. Bringing soldering into this is so cool.

LMAO! Rock on Fosters Beer!!!!! Aussie Aussie Aussie!

Loved this episode.  I really liked the metal art. If you heat the metal it changes colors & would give even a more authentic look to the wall art. Still a nice job. Keep up the good work.

Hilarious beginning and awesome idea!

Haha, Gracie's so sleepy! I love the simplicity of this project, and yet the results look fantastic... and suprisingly professional. I sometimes wonder if your running out of wall space for all of your wonderful creations?
ps- the beginning was priceless. Rob's acting skillz are out of this world! Corrine's look of confusion, no words. Too great

lol! Love the VMA clip bit.

The beginning = THE BEST. I agree with smidgen, texture would look great on your trees and would be super simple to do! And who's the new doggie?

Great intro!  And I love how you made soldering look so easy!  I just might have to try this, but I think I'm gonna take smidgen's suggestion and add some texture.  Thanks for the awesome episode!

could you please please please do  a show on organization? i suck at it and my parents always yell at me for it. i can't do anything using nails in my wall though.

Meg...your Thee Best! and....I love your co-host! Gracie!

omg i love the beginning best thing ever! lol i laughed for hours when i saw this... i love the idea its awesomee

Love love love Meg Allen Cole! If I had a friend, of course not me, who wanted to learn how to solder (or how to spell it) where should they look.  My friend is super interested but has too many hot glue burns that are holding her back.

This totally reminds me of when I was a little girl we used to make lanterns outta old cans! So cute and  I love the opening too!

Ahahahahahahaha!!! the beginning was probably the funniest thing i've ever seen! and the wall decorations were awesome.

amazing begining! great tutorial!

I love the concept but it would be great if the aluminum cans could have some texture put into them so they don't look.... umm... cheesy? Why not try using a textured hammer to give the tree tops some 3-D effect? Or how about some copper sheeting to give the tree trunks some color? Just my thoughts.... thanks!

The beginning! Hahaha that was hilarious!

is meg wearing a cape? love the idea got try it!

I've done this!

So I really like this idea, though I'm a little concerned about the sheer amount of Foster's can you had lying around. I'm think about doing this, but putting the printed side out. I just love the look of trash as art.

Haha!! Begining is total rocking!!!  Poor Taylor though :(  Very cool idea!  Not my style, but neat.

oky I love the whole metal art Idea I totally want to do it. But did any one else laugh when they were makeing fun of Kanya West.

THE BEGINNING! is AWSOME! oh my goodness! I love how everyone is pulling fun at him! its fantastic!
