Inspired by Pinterest: Soda Can Jewelry



You will be amazed at how simple and fun it can be to create necklaces, bracelets, earrings and key chains with soda pop cans. Join me and my daughter Emma as we share a bunch of fun ideas on today's episode. 



Here's the links to the blogs referenced in this episode:
Includes notes and tips on what worked and didn't work for me.

The Project that Started it All: 
Keychain by Crafty Lady Lindsay
My Dr. Pepper Keychain (no coating)

My Sierra Mist Keychain (with coating)
Most of the tutorials I found used a pattern and scissors to create the shapes, but I found that PUNCHES worked much, much faster and easier. So pull out your punches and see what you can create!! Oh and I really loved coating the punched out pieces with Ranger's Glossy Accents. It gave the pieces a bit more weight and kept them on the jump rings (definitely a must have for this project). 
Other ideas made from Soda Cans: 
Notebook by Two Paper Divas

Metal Flower Ideas 
Coasters by Amy @ The Idea Room

Be sure to visit my Pinterest TEEN SCENE Board for my ideas with soda pop cans! And a big shout out to my super, awesome daughter Emma. We had a lot of fun doing this episode and I think she rocks!! I'm not sure I can talk her into doing it again, but what a great memory we have together!!
