Talk about creative reuse. We never would have thought about applying tin can tops to a wall. Luckily, Clare Graham did.
Tin Can Top Wall by Clare Graham
This wall was in a bedroom suite decorated by White Webb in this year's Kips Bay Decorator Show House in New York. Read more about the house (which is no longer open) here.

This looks absolutely gorgeous, but I wonder if it would look as good in person, especially after it's been collecting dust, stray hairs, sweater frays, and whatever else it might catch.

no, that's Clare Graham of next-door-to-me!
he lives in LA and his gallery is right next door to my apartment. i knew he did instillation, but i never knew exactly happened in there...until this photo started making the rounds. I can't wait to get in there to take some photos and post 'em on my blog...

I went to the show house, and yes, this looks equally amazing in person. But it had not had a lot of chance to catch dust or sweater frays.

Aside from the dust accumulation problems, what about the danger of getting cut or scratched by the can edges?

there are can openers that cut around the bottom of the top so that there are no sharp edges. it looks like the tops are set into something - maybe similar to a tile wall? I don't think it would accumulate any more dust than tile but maybe I'm wrong.

I wonder if it smells like soup.
