Smoking is a bad habit. It causes cancer and, if smoking indoors, can make you and your entire home smell like an ashtray. However if you’re still a smoker and have an occasional cocktail cigarette/cigar then why not decorate your dirty habit with this kitschy ashtray? Actually these don’t have to be used as ashtrays at all they can be catch-alls and candy dishes if you like!

Instructions

Gather scissors and rinse out a new soda pop can (old ones can be sticky!).

Cut the top of your can off — it doesn’t have to be perfect, these ends will be folded under.

Cut the can into thin strips and fold them flat like a daisy.

Turn the can upside down and wrap one strip left and around the one next to it (see photo).
Continue this all the way around the can.

Viola!
