Hi! Crafters!
This project is a great upcycle one; because, coke caps are
used. I always have soda caps; because,
I collect them for the coke rewards and then throw them in the trash; so, this
would be a great way to upcycle them.
Note: Part of
this will need adult help to put a hole in the cap.
Spinning
tops From Plastic Bottle Caps
Materials: plastic
bottle caps: either from regular soda bottles, wide mouthed juice bottles, or
bottles like vinegar bottles; toothpicks or wooden skewers; a thick needle or
sharp item, such as a hat pin or those metal things you use to hold poultry
together for roasting (employed by an adult only); colorful electrical tape
(optional); quick drying glue (optional
Instructions:
Make a hole exactly in the middle of the bottle cap. Some caps
have a small bump there, if not eyeball it. A hole not in the center will
result in a imbalanced top.
Enlarge hole if necessary by moving needle around while still
in the hole.
Insert tooth pick or skewer through hole, trim second side of
toothpick (dangerous) or shorten skewer.
Secure toothpick with a few dabs of glue, though usually not
necessary, and decorate with small pieces of electric tape.
Share your ideas on this or anything here on the blog either
