Hey ladies! I am in search of empty shot gun shells. In particular the metal ends. So the color of the rest does not matter. I am needing them to make a Christmas present for my husband and dad. Do any of you have any or have husbands who will be using shotgun shells in the near future with hunting coming up and could save them for me? I am needing a good amount. Probably around 100. So any amount would help. Let me know! Thank you!

Thanks Natalie! I didn't think of it as repurposing, but you are right! Especially since those shells won't be sitting in our landfill now.

Those bullet signs are awesome! I love how you repurpose.

Keep shining!

Here is a picture I took to remember placement before I started painting.

Marilyn, I actually just got them all cut and the wood painted last night. I am shy 66 silver and 4 gold. I am making 3 different ones. I'm not sure what I will do. I was going to ask around again today.

Krista, did you ever get enough empty shells to make both gifts? If not how many more do you need?

I received your box, Julie. Thank you so much! Those are perfect.

Thank you Julie. I'm going to see if I can find one! I have some yarn scraps I can use!

Social Services and the Salvation Army put up fake trees here in various churches, the mall and a few public places and than the public can make or buy mittens, hats and scarves which are than collected and distributed to those who need them. I am currently using up my Biits and pieces of yarn and making hats and scarves for them as they wil be going up soon here.

Thank you Julie! I will keep an eye out for it. I'm not sure what a hat and mitten tree is. What is it?

Krista

I mailed a box off to you yesterday Krista. As far as something in return, if you have a hat and mitten tree in your town would you please make a hat for it on my behalf. Good luck with your ornaments.

Hi Krista,
I have a coffee can full for you. Send me your address and I will get them in the mail next week. Many of our hunters have cancelled because of the crappy weather, so I am not sure how many more I will get.

Hey ladies! Have any of you found anymore? I'm not having any luck with my Facebook friends. I may need to change my plan and make something else.

Krista
MaryJanesNiece Posted - Sep 09 2019 : 12:26:29 PM
Grace, thanks for the idea. I'm going to see what I can find. I'll see if my mom knows of any. I'm also going to ask my friends on Facebook.

Ooo I like that idea. Wine corks would be nice and make a nice kitchen decoration.

Krista... just a thought, is there a local outdoor shooting club/range? If so you could check with them for shot gun spent shells.

As for me... I like the letter "B "... maybe I can make one out of used wine corks! Heeheehee!
