Arizona Drink cans

I have kept a bunch of Arizona Drink cans because they're so pretty.
Does anybody have any craft ideas?
I really need to get rid of some and I was looking at Project Runway re-runs and I saw the candy dresses and thay inspired me to make a skirt.
I also remember I had Arizona cans so I'm thinking of making those decorations.
I don't know.......do you guys have any ideas?
Thanks

OMG I have zillions.
Im going through this phase where I drink like, 3 large cans a day. Im bouncing off the walls.
I drank the whole display case at Sobeys, and they're calling me when they get more. Happy
Anyway,
I heart them,
but i have no ideas.
Wait, you could do....
I got nothing.

you could make a belt with the ring pulls! omg I'm well gonna do that I usually buy a can of coke every other day! There's an ash tray tutorial using drinks cans but thats no good if you don't smoke and not very good if you know people who do smoke, that just encourages it!

i know some of the cans are really pretty. I always wanted to try making a cover out of it for a journal...but the "how to" I am not sure of.
I know some one made bracelets out of them and an ash tray on this site.

Ya I think there's a can cuff project but I always mess up on that project.
The problem for the ashtray is I'm not old enough to smoke and I don't like the smell of smoke either.
I think i might try to make the cuff though
=D
.........That's all

I know this isn't Arizona, but you know what other caps and labels are absolutely awesome? Jones soda. LOVE IT! I've kept my favorite bottle, and the rest i peel off the label and scrapbook 'em. It'd be awesome to be able to make them into a purse or something cool. Then it would be a collection with a purpose! Tongue

Rinse them out, crush them and paint them! I have a tutorial on the way about this project-not my own original but it's fun anyways. Can't recall where I saw it first (it may have been Instructables which somebody mentioned).

You could use the ash tray tutorial, but use then as candle holders. I also saw lanterns made from soda cans, they looked pretty neat.
