Vintage pop packagings give me crafty ideas

December 14, 2008

When we were in university and poor, one of my roommates used to collect coasters everytime he went out drinking, and used them to decorate his room.  I’m pretty sure he amassed quite a collection - those coasters went around the wall in his room as a continuous wall divider, and the effect was impressive.  Another friend used to keep all his beer bottles after emptying them into his stomach, as a pack of 20 something bottles made a nice stool when people went around to his house. 

Now, stumbling onto these colourful vintage pop cans is getting me all excited, think of all the cool things you can do with them! 

 

A quick search yields some pretty awesome results.  Although on second thought, all that cutting and bending kinda turns me off, I think I might just stick to the beer stools and coaster collection.
