    The soda cans can be embossed with a design. Place the metal over a textured surface and rub. Embossing machines are made for this.

      Yes the aluminum drink cans are easy and fun to emboss by hand or with a machine. Thanks for watching

    Instead of glue stick when you’re cutting out your design, I would use double stick tape. I just thought I would share my idea. That’s very creative. What you came up with kudos to you👍🫶

    I love to do curtains that look like stained glass and when the sun shines through it's so bright and colorful.
    I've tried real stained glass but I wasn't good at it. My soldering always clumped up. 🤷
    You did great explaining how to do this.

      Just as an aside - it might have been the flux or the temperature of your heating element. Mind you, this is just from my research, I haven't attempted my stained glass project yet because I'm waiting for cooler weather so that I can work outside, but from what I've read, that is the main causes of clumping. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Wondering how sun-proof the cans are for outdoor use? Was thinking about doing a flag. I would nail or wire colored pieces to waterproof material. Super sunny here!

    • @UpcycleDesignLab
      @UpcycleDesignLab  2 місяці тому

      Thanks for your question. The cans do fade in the sun. I believe that you can find sealers that provide UV protection so I would definitely recommend using one if you plan to put your project outside.

Thanks so much for the info you share.

      Thanks. I would not recommend putting them outside unless you have a really good sealer that also protects from UV rays. The print on the cans fades pretty easily in the sun and the paint and tape would also need to be sealed to withstand the elements. 🙂
