Beer Can Wallets
So winter time is when I “kinda” slow down. Most winters I get out my sewing machine and get creative. Two years ago I saw a bartender who has a leather wrist band that had a PBR can riveted to it. It made me think I could do something similar with the wallets I had made.
I had purchased a simple recycled bicycle tube card holder wallet from Alchemy Goods and since then made a copy from Gore-Tex. Now I have removed the license viewing and put a beer can in it’s place.
I have played with different ways to finish the edges of the wallets. I finally decided to make the edges longer than shown above and then fold and stitch them down, giving them a finished look. It looks much better and is much easier than trying to stitch 1/4″ ribbon on each side. Here are some finished products below.

I can make any flavor wallet you want as long as I can find the can or you ship a couple to me. Finished area of can is 2.25″ by 3 3/8″ give or take. (If you want me to use a certain section of the can you’re sending draw a rectangle larger than 2.5 x 3.5″ of the area you want used). Wallets are made to order and only take a few days. Payment is via PayPal.
