Bottle Cap Fobs


I have been fortunate to find a few friends who are keeping me supplied with bottle caps. Some of the caps are really interesting and I didn't want to paint over them, or cover them with magnets. I decided to make some cell phone fobs with them. Here is my first batch. The orange one in the center shows the back of one of the bottle caps (cool, huh?). I am also going to make some keyrings. I need to find a good source for small charms ... these are some of the ones I had on hand, and I like the detail the charms add.

I LOVE them and would use it as a key chain. Can't wait to see what else you come up with. And by the way, the toilet paper tutorial has great pictures. -C

Michelle these are great! It looks like you flattened them, punched holes and then used rings and charms- yes? I saw your blog from surface Design group. Different id there - ccg@wildblue.net Candy
