I’ve been asking my friends to donate all their tabs to me. I’ve even went to the local can/bottle return centers and helped people return their cans for the price of their tabs.

I have frineds from all over mailing me their tabs.

On Facebook, I’ve started a group called ‘Tabs of Love’ for the purpose of making items for raffles at my local college and my main project: making a messanger bag for the woman I love, utilizing the colored tabs from energy drinks to make patterns, designs and lettering on it.

My current issues are the lack of tabs, even though so many people are helping me out on this, and a way to connect them. I figured that jump rings would probably work, but they are pretty hard to find when you’re a college student that doesn’t live near a craft store.

So if you could suggest anything about connecting the tabs, or other ways of collecting tabs, I would be very appreciative.

Thank you.

Wow, those are very creative. I would definitely not have the patience to save pop tabs let alone make something with them.

Hey Beer man,
If you are looking to get rid of your beer/pop tops you can sell them on ebay….

I love anything which creatively recycles items which would otherwise end up in the landfill! In my clay work, I make clay pillow rattles and my “Fancy Feast” rattle features pull tabs from Fancy Feast cans mingled with beach glass – all hanging down from a rattle with a cat face impressed on the front.
