Ever wanted to make something with the ring pull on your soda can? Well, now you can!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Soda Pop
  • Chain or Necklace material
  • Glitter, and Sparkles
  • Glue
  • Table Space
  1. Step 1

    Buy a soda pop and pour the drink in a glass. Pull the top off very gently. This is called a ring pull. Put the ring pull in a special place. Your next step will now be the store.

  2. Step 2

    You will need to buy a small chain that you can put around your neck. It can be a gold or silver chain. If you don't have money for a chain you can get a piece of string for it. Also, you can even buy beaded strings. Whatever type of material that you would like to make a necklace out of.

  3. Step 3

    When you're at the store buy some glitter, sparkles, stickers, or whatever you'd like to decorate the ring pull.

  4. Step 4

    Once you're at home, find a clean spot on the table. Lay out your ring pull, necklace, and art material.

  5. Step 5

    Start with making the necklace. If it's just a regular chain with nothing on it go on to the ring pull.

  6. Step 6

    Get an idea of what kind of ring pull you would like to make. You can leave it plain, or you can use the art material you purchased. You can put stickers, glitter it, put sparkles on it, or even just a birthstone on it. If you have a best friend make one for her and give it as a gift so you both have the same one.

  7. Step 7

    If the necklace is plain, why not add some charms on it? Remember, these make great little gifts for teens, and kids!

  8. Step 8

    After you've finished doing both the necklace, and the ring pull, lay everything out and let it dry if you used glitter and such. Once everything is dry, carefully put the ring pull in the necklace, and tie it or clip around your neck. There you go!

Tips & Warnings
  • When you've finished your necklace, take a picture of it. I wish I had a camera when I did mine. I am sorry I don't have any pictures for it but if you google Ring Pull Necklaces, you'll get an idea.
  • Make one for yourself and for a gift for a teen, or a kid. These are great mother/daughter necklaces.
  • Don't put a lot of glue on your ring pull. Use very little.
