Teal Soda Pop Tab Earrings - Donation made to Ronald McDonald House

These cute and kitschy little earrings are made from can tabs that my family saves. They have teal aluminum jumprings on the bottom to add a little splash of color and to cover up the scratchy part where they are pulled off the can. (the teal and the navy blue look almost exactly alike in the photos, in the last photo you can kinda see the difference when you they're side by side.) They are strung on stainless steel earwires. They are very light weight and move smoothly as you move. They also make a pretty, little jingly sound as you walk (hehe). They are 1 3/4"(4.3 cm) long.

My daughter had the idea that pop tabs could make interesting jewelry, and she was definitely right. I sell my handmade jewelry at a local farmer's market (inside A Greener in You in a Dayton's PNC Second Street Market, if you're in the area), and these have been selling so quickly since I started selling them last month, that I hadn't had a chance to photograph them until now.

The last two photos are some of my other pop tab creations, you can see them here, too:

Like a lot of families with small children we have that little Ronald McDonald Houes box in our kitchen to save these tabs, so I want you to know that I donate 4X the value of the aluminum to the Ronald McDonald House online (about $4 per 1000 tabs--you need about 2000 tabs to make a pound and aluminum is currently worth about $1.25 per pound). I literally weigh the tabs, and send in a payment.

Thank you!
