I am looking for ideas for making crafts out of aluminum cans?

Take Acrylic paint and paint the out sides if them. Then poke either random holes in them or make a pattern. Put one tea light candle in each of them and you can use that as an out door centerpiece. Use different sizes to make them unique or you could secure them with wire and hang them.
Several years ago, while we were in Cracker Barrel, I saw some snowmen Christmas ornaments made from aluminum cans. They were flattened with the two ends on one side and painted.
This is a page about crafts using soda cans. You have probably seen soda can crafts in your neighbor's garden, at craft fairs, and on craft web sites.
Upcycle a drink can into this beautiful pendant. The geometric shapes of this pendant will match a laconic look. You can make earrings in the same way.
These earrings are a great way to recycle aluminum, are easy and fun to make, unique, and also make a great gift.
