Your pool is already the best spot in the backyard. This just makes it better — and keeps your drink from floating away while you float.
The Tween Space Floating Flower Can Holder is a 3D-printed pool accessory that looks like a lotus bloom and works like a loyal dock for your can. Drop your drink into the center, set it in the water, and it stays upright, visible, and easy to grab without swimming after it.
John (9) prints every holder himself. He runs the 3D printers at The Tween Space — cleans them, loads them, tests the prints — and Jake (6) makes sure each one passes the kid-approved test. If it cannot survive a splash war, it does not ship.
Why Your Pool Needs One
Pool drinks have two problems. They tip over on the edge. They drift away when you set them in the water. This holder solves both. The perforated base keeps the can upright and stable. The floating flower top keeps it visible — you can spot your drink from across the pool without squinting.
It is also the thing guests comment on first. A bright pink lotus floating next to the ladder with a cold drink inside — that is not just functional. That is a mood. For pool owners who already have the floats and the towels, this is the detail that makes the setup feel complete.

How to Use
Place your can or similar-sized beverage into the center opening. Set the holder in the water. The base keeps it upright. The flower keeps it visible. Grab, sip, return — no chasing required.
Care
Rinse with clean water after use, especially after pool time. Let air dry. Store in a cool, dry place. PLA does not like high heat — do not leave it in a hot car or direct sun when not in the water.
Common Questions
What size cans does it fit?
Standard 12 oz cans and similar-sized beverages. Slim cans work too. It will not fit wide energy drink cans or bottles.
Will it tip over?
The perforated base is designed to keep the can stable in calm water. In heavy splashing or choppy waves, it might wobble — but it will not sink.
What colors can I get?
Pink, teal, green, and more depending on what is in stock. Leave a color preference in the order notes and John will do his best.
Is this safe for saltwater or lakes?
Yes, but rinse with fresh water afterward. PLA holds up fine in pools, lakes, and saltwater — just do not leave it baking in the sun on dry land.
Who makes these?
John, age 9, prints every holder at The Tween Space in Mississippi. Jake, age 6, tests them. Nora, age 12, picks the colors.
Your pool. Your drink. A flower that keeps it right where you left it.
