I like the shape and the ribbing of the metal which provides instant modern flavor. Of course painting them black and white doesn't hurt either. They even look great unpainted and grouped together. I think I am going to try weathering a set of them next. A surface-rust patina would look really cool and make them appear a bit more industrial.
Of course stacking tin cans in this fashion has me thinking up other crazy projects like creating legs for tables or building them into a small accent table or stool. Hmmm . . . perhaps that is the next level of experimentation for my upcycled tin can collection. For now, I'm digging my candle pedestals (a.k.a. my tin can decor) big time.
