Bottle caps are little works of graphic art and are so versatile when it comes to making new things from them.My friends and I collect them because they can be used in so many ways – and hey, who doesn’t love a free craft supply? :)
Here are 5 really fun crafts you can make with bottle caps:
Bottle Cap Picture Frame
Jaimie at C.R.A.F.T. came up with this awesome picture frame covered in bottle caps. It is easy, colorful and really cool!

Bottle Cap Magnets
Once you mix the resin, you can make tons of these at a time – it doesn’t take much. These are a wonderful way to put tiny pictures of all of your favorite things on your fridge. I did a series of vacation pictures…Mine make me happy every time I walk by!
