» »Soaring Cup - Money Falls
A floating cup is a symbol of attracting money. The inexhaustible stream of coins visually resembles a waterfall, and a miraculously hanging container hangs over the saucer and adds mysticism to this. Maybe this souvenir is able to attract money to the house? Or maybe it's just a beautiful decoration? Everyone can decide for themselves, because it’s easy to make such a craft even for a child or a woman, since special skills are not required when working on the product.

To work, we need:
coins of small denomination (kopeks, five kopeks); a spoon, fork, or other vertical-looking device that acts as the holder of the structure; a cup; saucer; electrical tape or adhesive tape (you can use a thermal gun for fixing); glue; instruments.

glue and tape

spoon and bowl


First, bend a spoon or fork with pliers (in this case, a mini-ladle was used, but not everyone has one) so that one part of the cutlery is curved in one direction, the other, respectively, in the opposite direction.

bend a spoon


This is the future frame of the product. It can be wrapped with electrical tape.
Next, tape should attach the top of the cutlery to the cup, the bottom to the saucer.

must be sustainable


It is important that the parts are tightly attached - the structure must be stable.
Then it’s worth putting glue on the saucer. Pour some coins there, having built a slide. Repeat the same manipulations with the cup. Wait a bit until the coins freeze.

Then, stick the coins along the cutlery’s trunk, so that it looks like a flowing stream of money.
Now your cash waterfall - the soaring cup is ready!

Wait for the coins to freeze

You can give such a waterfall as a souvenir to someone, or you can safely put it at home as an ornament.

    It’s better to use a glue gun !!! And not a cook, but a strong wire!
