You Will Need (6 things)

  • Empty Soda Can
  • 2 Ear Wires
  • 2 Jump Rings
  • 2 Decorative Hoops (optional)
  • Scissors Or Die Cutter & Circle Die
  • Hole Punch

Steps (5 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather your items.

  2. 2

    Carefully cut open your coke can then cut 2 circles.
    Position them so you get an interesting part of the design or logo.

  3. 3

    Attach the ear wires to the top of the decorative hoops with jumprings.

    If you decide not to add the hoops, either attach the circle directly to the earwire or join them with a chain of 2 jumprings (or 4 or 6.... in fact, any even number - you want the circle to hang at a right-angle to the eye on your ear wire)

  4. 4

    Punch a hole near the top of the circle and attach to the other tab on the hoop with another jumpring.

  5. 5

    Pop them in, pop over to the mirror to admire your funky new earrings then pop open another can of pop, so you can make another pair <3
