Introduction: Turn Pop Cans Into Cups!
Turn pop cans into cups in 3 easy steps!
Step 1: Stuff You Need
12 oz. pop can
Can opener - The old kind that cuts into the can
Pliers or Sand paper
Step 2: The Cup
"Open" the pop can like you would a normal tin can.
Step 3: Smooth the Sharp Edges
Sometimes you may get a sharp edge from the can opener. Smooth the sharp edges out with the pliers or sandpaper to avoid getting cut on it.
Step 4: Clean the Cup
Wash the cup with soap and water.
Step 5: Your New Cup!
You now have a practically free cup made from a pop can! Also, this can be used for other things too like a candle holder or maybe a pencil holder.

I had this same idea! I use these for ash trays for my car! I had a pontiac sunfire that didn't have any ash trays! They are quick and cost nuthin!

You can also cover the can with some scrap booking paper or something to glam it up!

Very nice! Back in the day when I was a smoker, I used to make ashtrays out of soda cans whenever there were no ashtrays available.

These would be great for camping or the picnic basket as they are lightweight. Easy and simple.

Cool! Now you don't have to buy expensive recycled things! And you have a cool cup!
