one empty coke can (or really any soda/energy drink can you think of)


push pin or safety needle


light source (it can be your phone flashlight if you don’t have anything else)

Start Off With the “C”

With the pin, you are gonna poke tons of tiny holes all around the “C”.

Do the Same Thing With All Letters

This may take longer the more pinholes you put in… and also don’t worry about the wrinkles you might get in the can (it won’t affect anything).

Take Off the Tab

This will leave you with more space to put in/on the light source.

Grab Your Light Source and Test It Out

Flick off the light switch in your bedroom, close the blinds, shut the door, put the phone flashlight over the opening of the can and admire it!
