A few months ago I made a bottle cap coffee table and coated it with resin. This is a project that's been done 1000 times but I still wanted to try it, so I did. I posted the video below just in case you don't know what I'm talking about. When this project was done, I had about 1000 leftover bottle caps and I've been gluing them on everything ever since! That's how this Boho Bottle Cap Mirror happened. I have another version made with cardboard you should check out, just in case you don't have 500 bottle caps hanging around! Remember, have fun, make messes and don't forget to
Make Your Mark!
Decking out the living room!
See how I made it here!
The reason I have so many bottle caps in my craft arsenal!
