Bottle Cap Wreath

Homegrown Neighbor here:

I love Christmas. I love eating cookies, getting together with friends and family and of course, an excuse to make things. I was inspired this weekend to get a little crafty. My front door needed a wreath and I have a huge collection of beer bottle caps so of course I made a bottle cap wreath. I used a simple piece of wire as a form and a lot of hot glue. I tied the wire around a ceramic bowl to shape it. That’s about it. It took me perhaps an hour to make.
I also made this little one as a gift for a friend who helped to consume the beer for the project. For the little one I used the rim of a coffee can (like the one’s from Trader Joe’s.) I just cut off the metal rim from the cardboard and hot glued the bottle caps. I found a little green ribbon to hang it with as an extra special touch.
Happy Holidays to all.

  1. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ve got about 200 bottle caps that I’ve been saving to use for something. A local brewery will redeem 5 cents per cap on their ‘Chasing Tail’ brew and put it to a local no kill animal shelter, but the rest I need to use up. Love this idea:)

  2. Very pretty and since I can’t figure out if my recycler wants bottle caps or not I might keep some for a similar project.
