Now on to my project for you today =D I also wanted to share a little tutorial that I found on how to make this adorable little project!

Fourth of July 3D Watering Can Table Centerpiece

I personally made a SCAL/SCUT cut file for this 3d watering can because all I could find was a printable template so I will share the file with you: HERE

I also found the tutorial on how to assemble this with pictures step by step on Splitcoaststamper right HERE

The paper piecings I used on this watering can are all from Little Scraps of Heaven: The Fourth of July banner is the freebie file available this week so grab it while you can HERE

The bear and fireworks are part of the "Celebrate the Fourth Collection" that can be found HERE
