Never thought of filling them with ice and using a hammer & nail though, that's going to make life so much easier... I usually just push a bradawl through an empty tin can, unfortunatly this results in me making a sacrifice to the DIY gods (also known as stabbing my finger...) <br />You can put a wire handle on the top & hang them up too!Ruby Spirit Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02237791271949044289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-178997162737486600.post-38645113932213275362010-01-07T21:13:38.013+00:002010-01-07T21:13:38.013+00:00Ah-ha!

If they had holes in them they were all crooked, if not then the cans were all bent and dinged.
