Lid Pumpkin Wall Hanging

I have had this idea in my "to do" file for longer than I care to admit. I have seen these on line. So this week, I decided to just mark it off and share it with all of you. Just 9 components and about an hour of time (not counting paint drying) and it's done. Hope you like it.

Total Time: One hour without dry time, 3 hours with.

Supplies:

3 canning jar lids
Gorilla glue
scissors
1 sprig faux foliage
24 in twine
1 oz pumpkin colored paint
1 foam brush
1 button
hot glue gun

Steps:

In choosing the lid size, I will tell you I would go with the smaller one. But this worked out, too. I painted the lids 4 times and then did the edges. Sorry the color isn't quite true, I think I took this at night.

Then, I glued the top one to the bottom two and weighing them down, let them dry overnight.

Then, I put on the button, which has the twine in it like it was sewn on, and hot glued it to the center.

With the faux foliage, I just hot glued that to the back and then wrapped a couple strands of twine around in a bow. I like this as it's super easy and fun! N-JOY!!

Very cute and simple! What type of canning jar lids did you use? I have canning jar seals but are these lids off of a can of vegetables or fruit?

I like it very much especially because there are plenty ideas of recycling cans but not so many using can's lids. I think I would stick it on a door and either use it to hide a judas-hole or rather stick it on the door at the level of the key hole making a hole in shape of a key hole in the center of the button and troug the lid. Thanks for the idea !
