Bottle Cap Beads
Bottle Cap Bead Spotlight!
Bottle cap beads are creative, handmade little pieces of art in themselves, but they're also the perfect start to your nostalgia inspired necklace or key chain.
Two Styles (shown below)
A horizontal drilled style to feed directly onto your favorite chain or chord. (2.9mm holes) and a vertical drilled style with smaller holes (1.9mm) for creating pendants or charms.
Bottle Cap Bead Inspiration!

My husband puked up Orange Crush when he was a kid and won't drink it so I thought it would be funny to make our daughter this sweet little Orange Crush necklace with pink bead charms :0)
My dad used to buy Coke in glass bottles as a treat sometimes when I was a kid and we grew up on the beach. This brings back some fun family memories and will make a unique, personalized gift for my sister.
Some of our bottle cap beads go great with antique bronze or copper jewelry findings and give the necklace or key chain a litle bit of nostalgic sophistication.
Don't want a project?
Feed your favorite chain or cord through the bead and you're done.
It doesn't get much simpler than that.

I'm having a terrible trying to find a good, easy medium for coating my paper images inside bottle caps! I used ot use resin, but it was too timely. I read that clear gloss varnish was much easier to use, but it makes the brited colors in my images bleed and run. I have ruined many bottle caps by using varnish as my sealant.
I even started coating the paper images with Mod Podge before coating with varnish, but the colors still ran! I want to make more, but nothing seems to work. Any
