Fun with Bottle Caps

图片
When I was making my  Tiny Tin Treasure Boxes   for the grandkids, I also had some fun with bottle caps .  I wanted to add a vintage "doodad" to the tins, and chose these as something to add.  I decided it would be a great project for Marie and the boys and I to do when they were visiting; So we had a bottle cap day; the boys loved it and wanted to make one after another. There are plenty of ideas for what to do with these.   Make a necklace, key chain or  magnet; decorate scrapbooks or picture frames; trade them,  create games with them, or just let them jingle  in little pockets.  The kids enjoyed making gifts with them, and they turned into very nice gifts. You can purchase precut pictures and stickers for this project, or cut your own with a 1 inch round paper punch.   Decide on your picture and use the window on the punch to place the picture in the right position. Push down and retrieve your circle. Maxi crown caps...
