A Canny WOYWW

It keeps raining here today and having got caught out in two downpours already I think my mind is made up to spend the rest of the day in my crafting kingdom. I had to go out this morning because I wanted supplies to try something I saw over on the counterfeit kit blog and our local town's over abundance of charity shops once more came to my rescue. I wanted fabric to have a go at making flowers and for a little over £3 I managed to pick up 4 items of baby/toddler clothing to cut up and use.
I have had to improvise a bit because it really needs that iron on stiffening stuff on the back of the fabric before you diecut it to help it hold it's shape. Now I know I had some at one point but what happened to it I have no idea and seeing as it came from our local market that is not open on wednesdays I have had to make do with gluing the fabric to thick paper (old scrapbook album inserts to be precise).
Anyhow that is why the principal focus of my oddly angled desk shot this week is my beloved cuttlebug and Tim Holtz's tattered florals die.
Also in view for those of you who just have to know are a couple of new stamps that I mounted straight away (unusual behaviour for me). They are Lili of the Valley images, not my usual style but the bear in a mini in prticular shouted out to me. Aside from that there is my usual selection of desk oddments and a glimpse of the shelves that I am currently working in front of.

So last week I mentioned something on my desk that caught a lot of your attentions. I am refering to the device to turn a can into a bottle, more rightly called (in the case of mine) a canny capp.
This is what one looks like
And this is how it turns an ordinary drinks can into a bottle.

Basically it pushes onto the top of the can meaning that if you can't drink all the contents in one go they don't go flat, or attract unwanted bug attention, or within reason splash everywhere.

Admittedly it isn't perfect and if you knock the can over it will most likely pop off (amazing amounts of pressure can build up in there) and if you are a little sipper there is the possiblity of a little seepage around the edge. But it is handy and I really like them.

Finally I would like to apologise to all the WOYWWers whose blogs I have visited over the past couple of weeks and not commented on, Blogger has been such a pain that I've almost gave up trying to comment. I'm still really grateful to all of you for sharing though.
