DIY Bottle Cap Snowmen

We got the idea from Kelly’s Pinterest board, where she had pinned this little guy from She Who Makes.  Here’s how we made ours:

Materials:- bottle caps
- white, black, orange, and red acrylic paint
- paintbrushes
- ribbon
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
- buttons
- scissors
- optional: glitter and/or sparkle Mod Podge

STEP 1: Paint the inside of each bottle cap white.  It’s a little tricky getting it to coat completely, so you’ll probably need to so several coats, letting it dry in between.  You can paint the outsides too if you really want, but we didn’t.
STEP 2: Glue three bottlecaps to a piece of ribbon.  You’ll also want to put a bit of glue in between each bottlecap to hold them together.  Form a loop with the top of the ribbon and glue in place.  {Thanks to Kelly for being my hand model…you didn’t even know I took this pic, did you?  I’m so sneaky like that.  }
STEP 3: Use the end of a paintbrush or a toothpick to paint eyes, a nose, mouth and buttons on your snowmen.  Once they were dry, I added some sparkle Mod Podge to mine.
STEP 4: Tie a ribbon or yarn between the first and second bottle caps to make a scarf and accent with a button if you like.
