the art of creating versatile textile out of ordinary pop (soda)/bear/soup/fruit/other can pull tab woven together with fabric, ribbon, cord, wire, jump rings or any other material.
a fabric consisting of can tabs which are woven together by hand to produce a design, often wearable, used for clothing, wall hangings, furniture coverings, etc.
to furnish, cover, or adorn with pop tabs.
also referred to as "pop topping"; and in conjunction with the terms "trashion" and "upcycling"
For everyone's convenience, I've created a simple printable grid sheet to help in the layout of custom tabistry patterns. At the link below is an 8.5x11" PDF (105K) of the grid for common small square and round tabs. You should be able to layout staggered scale patterns as well as grid patterns using this sheet*.
