Description

The listing, Recycled Soda Can Ornaments - Choose 1 has ended.

Handmade recycled soda can ornaments. Measure about 4" tall and are foam backed. Comes with a hanger. I have a lot of cans prepared to make ornaments again this year. These are really cute hanging on the tree with the lights reflecting on the metal. They also look good during the day with no lights on. Guys really like these made with beer cans. They also make great gift embellishments. Plus, we can recycle to help the Earth. Some cans work better than others. It depends on the design and which way it is facing. If you have a favorite soda or beer you would like me to use I will see if I have the cans. Photos are samples that I have in stock right now to choose from.

Questions & Comments

are they smooth on the edges? and can you do a auction for a set of four? winners choice of designs if you have them? please let me know.. :)

They are pretty smooth. They kind of bend around the foam when I cut them. I would still be careful. I would not let little kids play with them. I can set up a new auction with 4 with a GIN if you'd like. Listia charges a 10% fee so I have to set the points higher to get what I think is fair. I get more points when I auction them separately.

if toy font mind me asking how did you get started doing stuff like this? its a great idea.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 1:22:25 PM PST by

Saw one of these on the internet and I have added designs as I find them that fit the cans. I worked for the Texas Environmental Commission and we were always looking for items to recycle. We started decorating our Christmas tree with them because we couldn't use lights. The can ornaments reflected the lights in the office and was a recycled item. From there I started using them for gift embellishments and sending them to friends in Christmas cards for their trees. They have been a lot of fun.

these r amazing.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 3:44:21 PM PST by

Thanks. These take a little more time. The hanger on the top is cut separately and has to be glued on. I also score them to make them reflect light more and not look so flat. Guess it is just me. I think they look better that way.

Diet Dr pepper, Busch Light, Diet Coke and 7-up.. would be amazing : )

Dec 8th, 2012 at 12:42:16 AM PST by

Ok thank you, really haven't got a clue what that is though.. I just cut one out with scissors in the shape of a Christmas tree but doesn't quite look like yours

Dec 9th, 2012 at 7:53:59 PM PST by

I have dies that make it much easier than cutting.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 2:57:15 PM PST by

Thank you.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 2:59:38 PM PST by

I'm loving that green mountain dew one! :) Just what I'm looking for! Sure hope I can win this one, too! This is such a cool idea. My mother used to make little doll house furniture out of tin cans years ago. She would curl the can for the legs and arms of chairs and table and stuff. These remind me of when she used to do that. Thanks so much for putting these up for auction. :)

Dec 7th, 2012 at 7:16:27 PM PST by

They have been really popular. I have been doing them for the past 3 Christmas's.

Dec 7th, 2012 at 7:56:18 PM PST by

Dec 8th, 2012 at 7:32:05 AM PST by

i want the coca cola one

Dec 8th, 2012 at 7:22:25 AM PST by

Good luck. The ones I have are done with the vintage Santa pictures. The cans are from the past two years. This year, I haven't seen any on the Coke cans. They are perfect for the ball ornaments.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 7:28:25 AM PST by

Fanned and Watching! Fan me back! :)

Dec 8th, 2012 at 10:30:16 AM PST by

Thanks, I will do that.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 11:28:08 AM PST by

what do the backs look like? is it the same on both sides ( I hope) or just silver on the backside? LMK

Dec 8th, 2012 at 10:46:25 AM PST by

It has a complimentary color of foam glued to the back.

Dec 8th, 2012 at 11:21:37 AM PST by

Like them a lot and will bid if I can be assured there will be no beer ornaments. If not okay but will be fanning

Dec 8th, 2012 at 2:34:00 PM PST by

Can be made with can of your choice. These are just some ideas.
