STYLE BUZZ: Pop Topping is the art of making crafts from soda can tabs. This rich tradition was first documented back in 1975 in the book Start Off in Pop Topping and is still around today. I am glad crafters are practicing creative reuse, but I hope for their sake they aren’t actually drinking all that soda.
