You Will Need (4 things)

  • Amazing Goop or other strong clear glue
  • 18 Pennies (or other coins)
  • 2 Clear 2 Liter Soda Bottle
  • Kitchen Scissors Xacto Knife or Box cutter

Steps (2 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut the bottom off a clear 2 Liter Plastic bottle just below the label using Kitchen Scissor, an Xacto knife or hot knife or a box cutter.

    I used Kitchen Scissors and pinched the side to start the cut as I have tried all of the above methods and found I have better control in keeping the line straight and the edges smooth with Kitchen Scissors

  2. 2

    You will also want to let it dry upside down as the weight from the pennies will cause it to slide down if upright; this way they are nice and neat against the edge.
