How to Make a Pendant from Soda Cans
"In this post, I'll show you how to make an intricate filigree pendant from recycled aluminum soda cans. This pendant has a fun, Art Nouveau-y feel to it. The filigree piece is made using a die-cutting machine and the pendant is finished with micro bolts and a glue-on bail, so you don't need to solder anything. You could also make this with a jewelry saw or cut out your chosen design or pattern with metal shears."
