Metal Fruit Cups
 
I have seen where people are taking fruit cups, the metal ones with pull lids, and making them into gift cups. It looks really fun and easy but not quite sure how to start. Does anyone know how to do this? Where do you get the cups? How do you fill them without opening the tab? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jill

I've used the fruit cocktail cups from the grocery store. Just use one of those safety can openers (the one that doesn't leave rough edges) to open the can from the bottom. Empty out the fruit and clean the container. Fill with desired goodies and seal the bottom back on. (I've used crystal effects) HTH!

If you need visuals, there was just a tutorial posted for this today: http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...s/pop_top_can/
For the cans, the main thing is to make sure it has a flat bottom (that looks like the top of a regular can) and not a rounded bottom.

The tutorial is awesome. It answers every question I had.

Thanks,
