I apologize for the late posting! My glue didn’t dry as fast as I thought it would so I wasn’t able to post pictures before I left for work. Then, when I got home, my memory card decided to break 🙁 So, I took pictures of the magnets with my phone and have none from the actual process. But I still have the step-by-step-tutorial below. I tried to be as descriptive as possible and added links to the supplies.
I’ve wanted to make bottle cap magnets for a long time, but I always forget to keep my bottle caps. Today, when I was at the craft store, I found caps and got really excited. It just so happens that my boyfriend is starting a brewery that will be opening later this year and I thought these would be perfect for them to give away at beerfests.
Things You Will Need:
Magnets
Super Glue
Bottle caps
Dimensional Magic glue
1″ Hole punch or scissors
Photos/scrapbook paper/personal design
Step 1
Glue your magnet to the back of your bottle cap with the Super Glue.
Step 2
Cut out your design into a circle that will fit inside of your bottle cap.
Step 3
Glue your design into the bottle cap with the design face up.
Let it dry.
Step 4
Squeeze in a layer of the 3D glaze.
Let it dry.
When you’re finished you will have some lovely personalized bottle cap magnets! Perfect for your own photography, business promotion or just to add a little style to your fridge. They would make a nice gift, too!
Let me know what you think!
Happy crafting! I’m off to buy a new memory card.
I love them. Nice job.
Thanks. Wish I could’ve shared all my pictures 🙁 stupid memory card.
Thanks!
These are great!!!
Thanks, Elise! I just bought a few to test them out. If the guys like them I can make more in bulk.
just perfect presentation – I really enjoyed it!
Aww thank you! So glad you liked it. They’re so easy to make, too.
This is really smart. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thank you! Maybe you can use it some day 😄.
And so many bottle caps have cool sayings in them. I should have kept them. I wonder if I can make magnets out of my Dove bites wrappers…
That would be interesting! You can get half glovbes made of glass and cover the wrappers. Then bout a magnet on the back. Let me know if it works!
Finding fluted edges would make them more artsy than twist tops. I’ll keep my eyes out for them.
Good thinking! It definitely would. I’ll let you know if I see any.
