What you need

4x Paper Cups
2x Toothpicks
1x Earphones (provided along with your iPod or any other)
Blade or box cutter

Steps
1. On the underside of 2 cups, use a box cutter to cut a cross in the center of the cup. Cross should be long enough to fit an earpiece through and securing it. This will be your speakers.
2. For a stand, use the sharp end of a toothpick to poke through the underside of the other 2 paper cups, and then securing your new speakers onto it.

End product:
