BOTTLECAP ART TUTORIAL

Here is how it is done. It's a fun thing to do with a group of friends.

Even folks who claim that they have no artistic ability will surprise themselves with beautiful creations.

Remember that you are created in the image of YHWH who is talented, creative, brilliant, and has a sense of humour. Create, as human beings were meant to be creative, expressive, and interactive creatures... with one another and with their God.

May you bless others with the talents with which you have been born.

Send me a video of your creations so that I may enjoy the fruits of your artistic labour!

HAVE FUN!

@fishergirl8701 I purchased these online from brew-your-own-beer website. Comes in bags of 50.

@chiliconholly Dries clear.

@yakyak515 Easily a couple hundred. I generally mix up a quarter or a half of it and have lots of bottlecaps ( or other projects ) lined up as to not waste it.

@hal12b One inch hole-punch. Found at Michael's or AC Moore craftstores or online.

@wereall2youngx Did you print on paper or plastic? I have not had this happen (yet). I use an old Lexmark inkjet printer.

@juliettegrl Sometimes depending on temperature & humidity, they remain tacky. I then mix a small amounts of equal parts and brush to cover & seal, hoping for the best. Might want to try a gloss acrylic clear to top it off.

@51allenfamily Alas, those one inch punches dull quickly, unlike a good pair of scissors.

@2008flightgirl Actually, for me.... that would be more labour intensive. I can cut easily around a quarter. The tracing the quarter may be helpful to some but if someone is not good at cutting on the line, then there are lines left behind which detracts.

[2008flightgirl]

tip: It would be a lot easier if you would lay the quarter on the design, draw the circle on all of them and then cut them out

[51allenfamily]

you should get a one inch hole punch works alot faster

then cutting them out
