DIY: Arizona Green Tea Camera.


 The other day I saw a Youtube video where a girl( Bethany Mota gotta give her credit) made a decorative camera out of Arizona Green tea cans, I HAD to try it! And I HAD to share it with you guys. So here is my step by step on how to make it.

What you need:
Two cans Arizona Tea whatever flavor or can design you like best.
Scissors
hot glue gun and a small piece of card board

 step 2: cut right down the middle of the nutrition facts on both cans
 step 3:  Next Cut the can down to the size (height and width) you want your camera to be ( smaller is better) Mine is 6cm by 13cm


 Step 4: Then you're going to take those pieces and glue them together on both sides so you have a tube like this.
 step 5: now you're going to take your card board and cut it down to size and put it in the middle of the tube. This is going to give it that camera shape.
 step 6: next take your top and  punch in the part we pop  open to drink out of.

 step 7: then you are going to cut as close to the top edge of your top as you can and glue it on to the front of your camera. This is going to be the "lens"

 step 8: next you are going to fill in the top and bottom of your camera to give it a nicer look. Take one of the scrap pieces and cut little slits on one side so it folds easier  then fold it in to place on the top of your camera. (this was the hardest part for me so do whatever you think will work best for you.)

 for the bottom i folded a piece the opposite way and didn't cut any slits (this makes it be able to stand up better.)
 step 9: Your going to take this little thing (whatever its called) and glue it to the top of your camera. Its going to be the camera button.
 step 10: next you're going to take another scrape piece and fold it however you'd like and glue it on top of your camera, that's going to be the flash.
 And That Is All. Now you have a cute little handmade decor camera.
 I LOVE Mine. :)
