Recycle Bottle Caps with this Cute Ornament Craft!

I have stated in previous blogs that I am addicted to Pinterest especially when it comes to recipes and decorating my house. I had my family over for Thanksgiving and my mom; sister and I were working on some Christmas craft ideas. The original craft we planned didn’t really pan out so I pulled up my Pinterest board and found a craft that I knew I had the stuff for. This was soooo easy and super simple to make.



Supplies you need:
  • White Paint
  • Hot glue gun
  • 3 beer bottle caps
  • Orange permanent marker
  • Black permanent marker
  • Ribbon
  • Assorted buttons


What you need to do:

1. Save the bottle caps off of 3 of your bottled beverage of choice.
2. Paint the inside of the beer cap with white paint.
3. Once the paint has completely dried glue the bottle caps together side by side on the edges as shown in the picture above. You’re basically building a snowman with the bottle caps.
4. Draw a snowman face on the top bottle cap using an orange marker for the nose and black for the eyes and moth.
5. Draw buttons on the middle bottle cap with black marker
6. Fold a piece of ribbon on an angle to create a scarf. You will then glue this in between the top and middle bottle cap.
7. Glue a button or any other type of small Christmas decoration to the folded part of the scarf to add a little something extra to the ornament.
8. Create a loop with another piece of ribbon to create a hook and glue this to the back side of top bottle cap.

That’s it! Now you have a cute ornament to hang on your tree or to give as a gift!
