Bottle Cap Snowman Ornaments

Are you ready for an onslaught of Christmas/holiday related crafts and gift ideas? I hope so because it’s already started! Have I mentioned my husband never thought I would turn crafty on him? Apparently I wasn’t crafty before I started blogging. Luckily he still loves me :)

Back to the topic at hand…Bottle Cap Snowman Ornaments! These are simple, cute and cheap (my favorite).
All you need are:

• Bottle caps. 3 to each snowman unless you want to make mutant snowmen for your younger brother or something…
• White paint
• Something to color with. I used a sharpie and orange highlighter
• Glue gun
• Ribbon

Start by making sure your bottle caps are clean and dry.
Give them a few coats of white paint, allowing to dry between each coat especially if you have cheap paint like me.
Fold a little bit of ribbon into a loop and hot glue that to the top of one of your bottle caps on the back. Add another dab of glue at the bottom. Glue the ribbon to two more bottle caps and trim the end. I like having a bit of ribbon show between each cap to add color.
Draw cute snowman faces and button on your ornaments and adorn your tree with cuteness! Sorry, is that too girly? My faces/buttons are a little crooked because I drew them on before gluing…yah, draw them on after the ribbon is glued on.
