My husband has been collecting bottle caps for a long time. He loves collecting caps of his favorite drinks. After seeing an idea on Pinterest, I decided that making these cute, brightly colored caps useful was a good idea. Why not add some spice to your refrigerator by making magnets of out them?
VERY easy to do! You can buy circle shaped magnets at Walmart – a set of 18 for less than $2. (though since the bottle caps are deep, I have to stack two magnets on top of each other so I ended up only making 9.)
This idea could also be modified. If you wanted to insert your own pictures, just turn the bottle cap the other way and mod podge the picture inside the cap and put magnets on the back. Here’s a tutorial.
Eventually, I want to try this – making this bottle cap tray:
Doesn’t it look so cute??
Plus, here’s 5 more easy bottle cap craft.
Hope this give you some ideas to try!! Please share on my facebook page once you have tried one of these projects or what you have done in the past!!

Nice! Thanks for following me and commenting! I’m going to stop by your site and check it out!
Cute ideas. We always have a ton of bottle caps lying around. Especially when we have a dinner party. I really like the idea of making magnets. Our current magnets are all the ugly kind that companies give away as advertisement. Could definitely use an upgrade!

I really love having the bottle caps on our fridge now and look forward to making more!!
Ooooh love the bottle cap tray. Very cool. It might be time to start collecting bottle caps.
I know I SO want to make the bottle cap tray soon!
Oh this would go with my retro kitchen…how fun, now my creative juices are flowing. Thanks for the inspiration.
No problem – glad to inspire!! I always find Pinterest so inspiring!
The best thing I’ve ever done with old bottle caps is turn them into earrings! You can buy earring hooks at Michael’s for really cheap, drill a hole in the “top” of the bottle cap and string the hook through! To make them really unique, just add stickers!
That’s a really cool idea!! We do still have more bottle caps…I’ll have to try that sometime!
