How Do You Make Animals Out Of Crushed Aluminum Cans?
Did you ever see a crushed beer can and think, “Hey, that looks just like a…. (fill in the blank)”? Well, here’s your chance to bring that beer can to life. The following article will show you how to find the inner “canimal” in your next evocative find. Find a crushed aluminum can. Pick one that suggests an animal shape or face. Make sure it’s not too dirty. Wash it thoroughly in soap and water. You might need to let it soak overnight. When the can is dry, look it over carefully. View it from both sides and all angles. What animal does it suggest? Add small beads or buttons for eyes, cut out parts of another can for feet and ears, use wire for hair or tail. Glue (I use Goop) various parts to the can to bring out the canimal. Give your creation a name and enjoy!
