1. Another way to get the metal look would be to go to a building supply store Home Depot or something and buy some flashing. It bends easy, cuts with tin snips and will give you the metal look you are going for. You should be able to glue it together. Make sure you wear gloves. and bend over the edges so they are not sharp. http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xhs/R-100054269/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053
2. A plastic garbage can? Cut in half? Leave bottom attached so it will stand up easily, cover bottom with something to look like straw. The stuff they use in easter baskets,perhaps?
3. Poster board or Cardboard bends well... then there are metal looking spray paints... or you two or three colors of spray paint to give it texture... like a brown gray and maroon???
