Coca Cola Can Flower

 

 

 

I made coca cola flowers to use for my project.  Each coca cola can makes two flowers.

 

What you will need:

• a clean coca cola can
• exact-o-knife
• metal hanger
• pliers
• tin can
• hot glue
• pick
• wire cutters

How to create the flower:

 

To make the top of the flower: First, you want to take your coca cola can and cut it in half with the exact-o-knife.  Then, you want to take one half of the can and cut strips from the base of the can to the edge that you just cut.  Next, you fold back the strips and you made the top of the flower!  You can repeat the following steps to create a second flower. 

 

To make the bottom of the flower: Take your wire cutters and snip off the straight part of your metal hanger.  Then, take your pick and place it in the center of the tin can.  Gently put your hand on the top of the pick and push it down so that you make a small hole through the tin can.  Place the metal hanger in the hole and use the pliers to bend the hanger under the can.  Finally, take the hot glue and glue the bent part of the hanger to the tin can and glue around the top of the can where the hanger meets that can.  Glue the back of the flower to the metal hanger and allow time to dry.
