I've previously written about the recycled beer can tab jewelry . Soda can tabs can also be used. Carrie, who loves reading this blog recently sent me the link to this wonderful Wikihow tutorial of how you can make your own pop tab bracelet. She hasn't made one yet but it's in her "gotta try that" pile. Thanks, Carrie for the tip!!



You'll need 50+ tabs and some string, cord and ribbon to tie the tabs into two layers. They really do look more upmarket if you string in some beads too. The tabs are place with the the backs fo the tabs facing the interior to reduce scratching.

Altered Angel also has an environmentally friendly idea with using the soda cans themselves to make simple tag pendants as shown below.



Angie from the New New York Etsy Street team wrote a great tutorial for making her version of disc/stamped aluminium can jewelry which has eyelets.
