Crafty Saturday: Bottle Cap Magnets

I hate waste.  I like to re-purpose.  I really hate this throw away society.  So what do you do when your boy constantly leaves bottle caps all over the place after popping open a beer?  Bottle cap magnets!!

The boy used have a serious problem leaving bottle caps everywhere!  At first, it used to drive me crazy but then I noticed some of the caps had some pretty interesting artwork.  I decided to keep some of the more interesting ones and the boy started to shovel them into a kitchen drawer. "sigh" At least they weren't left all over the counter.

The magnets are so easy to make!  A pack of round flexible magnets from a craft store and hot glue.  That's it!  Although, I did use some felt I had around to add more depth since the magnets I bought were a little vertically challenged. Kind of like me!

Presto! Bottle cap magnets!

Happy crafting!
