I have always wanted to do tin projects like this but I've never gotten around to it. I even have a book about working with tins. I think this DIY sconce project may just be the push I need to start tackling this new (to me) crafting adventure.
These sconces were made by Ashley (1/2 of Shanty2Chic). She used hose clamps, scrap wood, and clear vases. For all sconces, she spent only $20. From my personal experience, hose clamps are wonderful things. I use them to hold jars in my craft room. Design variation: use wood plaques and mason jars.
