Bottle caps are a lot of fun. I love how versatile they are. Use them in jewelry (bracelets,
necklaces, earrings), scrapbooks, cards, assemblage and mixed media art. Include your kids or grandkids in many
of these fun projects. Great for classroom projects too.
This bottlecap sample above has a rounded dome charm that was covered with Graphics 45 paper in the
center. The dome part of the charm gives it an added dimension.
Rounded dome charms can be found on this page link

Bottle Cap Stickers~ The sheet has 40 stickers on it all ready to be adhered to your bottle caps on
the inside or outside. I have compressed the picture so it loads quickly but it looses detail. The sheet
is titled "Vintage Children" but offers a nice mixture of family, little girls, Paris, Rome and Asian flair. Try
putting your stickers on the inside of the cap and then adding clear glaze embedding it inside. Make sure your press
your sticker into the cap well or will raise up. These are from Design Originals and are very nice. For ease of
mailing so that the stickers don't pop off, these will be cut neatly in half.
$2.29
Bottle Cap Stickers - Art Elements ~ I just love these. You get 40 stickers in all. All
are different, there are no repeat designs. I even use the circle that is left when you remove the stickers. You
can use the empty one as a frame around another picture. You can cut a block of them out, say 4 or 6 and use in altered
books, put letters inside, spell something out. You don't have to have bottle caps to use the stickers, they are great
for any project. The possibilities are endless between the stickers and the scraps. For ease of mailing so that
the stickers don't pop off in bulky packages, these will be cut neatly in half.

| Bottle Cap & Sticker Pendant |
This has a pre-flattened bottle cap inside the keepsake pendant with one of the art elements stickers.
Flattened Silver Bottle Cap~These caps come to you pre-flattened, all nice and neatly done. I
stay up until 3:00 am every morning flattening bottle caps-just teasing. These are very nicely done and, as with any
bottlecap, you can use either side. One side is slightly recessed and has a nice smooth edge and the other side has
a raised area and the recessed area is along the edge with the fluting. Either way-makes a great embellishment.
The cap measures approx. 1 1/4" in diameter.
Pkg of 10 flattened bottle caps.
$1.99
Jumbo Bottle Cap Sample- the color did not scan very well because the scanner picks up best what is closest
to the glass, but as you can see, a lot can fit in a jumbo cap.
JUMBO Bottle Caps-They are as big as a house- well maybe approx. 2" in diameter anyway. These
are deep too, approx. 1/4". You can put a hole in the top and use as a pendant, add your favorite picture, collage,
etc- even 3d collage. The come in a bright silver finish. Unlike other bottle caps that may have a ridge or a
liner on the inside, these are completely smooth inside and backside. The picture shows a jumbo cap beside a regular
cap. Sold per piece.
$1.45
Mini Bottle Caps~Okay I think we have all the sizes now. These are very cute!! They are a bright
silver finish and measure approx, almost 3/4" wide measuring across the open fluted end. This end allows you to add
things to the recessed center, including resins. Its side wals are approx. 3/16" high. The bottle cap top end
measures approx. 1/2" across, this is the smooth side. These are a great size for earrings, hint hint. Pkg

My granddaughters love anything "princess" so using Walt Disney Bottle Caps Stickers, plastic beads and Articus
Studio Bottle Caps, I made this adorable necklace.
Using an inexpensive pendant, I placed a flattened silver bottle cap inside with bottle cap knobbies up and placed an
Art Elements sticker on the bottle cap. So Simple. You could make an elegant look like this using an Art Keeper
Pendant and a flattened gold bottle cap.
