Bottle Cap Hoarding

Vintage Bottle Caps in RetroChalet.etsy.com
I am cleaning out my studio lately, and unmassing the thousands of vintage bottle caps I've been saving for a rainy day. You know, there are so many uses for vintage soda caps. You can make bottle cap rings, pendants, or bracelets out of them. I did a bunch of earrings awhile back. They also look cute in your altered art!
Altered Art Supplies
Tons of vintage bottle caps available in RetroChalet.etsy.com

Why buy new and commercially mass produced bottle caps when the old serve just as good of a purpose? There's tons of new made-in-china bottle cap projects in craft stores, but when so many vintage are floatinr around I just don't understand why someone wouldn't want to wear a great part of yesteryear....

Bottle Cap Collecting can be fun, and doesn't take up much room. Tiny shadowboxes can house a bunch of these little industrial remnants of yesteryear.
