Take the coffee pods of choice. Clean them and hereafter cut off the bottom and top. The side piece needs to be flattened entirely. Take your decorative scissors of choice and cut the side of the flattened piece to create an edge. Fold over this edge. Now you have a mix of silver and your coffee pod color.

If you want two different colors of coffee pod, repeat this step, but add the 2 together with one color in the front and the other color on the back (silver side facing the middle).

Cut the Squares

Take a square punch and cut where you have folded your edge. Make sure you do not cut where you have folded otherwise your edge is cut off and your only have a square.
