Tin Wrapping 3



This is even a simpler version to Tin Wrapping. Once again, I used a belly band. The only difficulty in this wrapping is cutting the belly band. The height of the band should be just shorter than the height of the tin. Here I used the same embossed paper from yesterday's project. The width of the belly band should wrap around the tin with a one inch overlap.

Here is the belly band. The height is 1/8th inch shorter than the height of the tin.


Here is the side view of the belly band.
Add a ribbon and you are done. This ribbon is tied in a shoe lace tie that was explained in an earlier post.

To add interest to the wrapping, I inserted silk flowers underneath the ribbon. The flowers only wrap half way around the tin.



This project took me a total of eight minutes to complete and most of that time was spent separating the silk flowers from their stems.
