A Cute Children DIY Project ~ Cakes out of Bottle Caps

Reuse old bottle caps! You already saw how to make a bottle caps chandelier and a bottle caps soad dish.

Here's one delicious and colorful kids bottle caps project!




Remember that famous quote: Let them eat cakes? In this case - DON'T let them eat cakes! Let them make cakes, let them admire them and let them play with them! :)

Extra tip: you can probably use food colors for caps coloring too. Try it and report the result!

Upcycle plastic bottle caps - make a unique soap dish


Remember those ideas for the poorly furnished apartment where you’re only temporarily staying? We talked about brooms and dustpans. You may want to have a soap holder too.

Here's a cheap and original idea on how to make it. You will need plastic bottle caps, a little plastic container and some pebbles.




Extra tip: instead of using pebbles and a plastic container, you can try and glue the caps together with a hot glue gun. Keep in mind -  it's questionable that the glue cansurvive water and soap!

Upcycle plastic bottle caps and freshen up your home with an original chandelier


There are recycling containers for collecting plastic bottles, paper, glass etc. Have you noticed how plastic bottle caps aren’t collected at all? So what should we do with them? There is a special way they might be recycled, but you have to "investigate" that in your own city. Meanwhile, we’ll see how you can reuse them.

Creative minds worldwide have already started to come up with cool ideas on how to put those caps to use!

My first cap suggestion is a beautiful lampshade. It is not very complicated, but it takes some time, precision and patience to get it right.

Here it is!


A step by step guide is described at this page , where you can even find some print material to help you pin the lampshade up.

Extra tip: try out different colored caps. Pictures are very welcome in the comment section!
