25 ways with bottle tops & plastic caps

Back when I was a little girl (in the olden days as my 7 year old daughter reminds me), there wasn't as much around to be recycled. Milk was delivered in a glass bottle and they were cleaned and put out again to be refilled. Other things were in glass or only bought in bulk and those products came in paper or fabric packaging. Now there are so many little things. Plastic, metal, some materials I don't even know the name of. I tend to just throw them in my recycle bin but there's so many novel ways to use them. I hope you enjoy my Saturday series of looking at different ways to use common objects found around the house. You can check out some of the past posts here.

    Very fun ideas! I don't have many of the bottle tops but we do have the plastic caps. I think the stamps are a great idea for the plastic caps!

    Anne, these are all such amazing projects (I am partial to the bottle cap planter). If I were to start collecting bottle caps my husband would go crazy! :)
