Bottle Ring Snowflake







I have so many plastic bottle caps and the plastic rings from plastic bottles.  We know they can't go into the recycle bin and I defiantly don't want to put them in the trash where they will end up in the landfills.

Today, I am working on bottle ring snowflakes.  Great for small ornaments for the tree, gift tags, purse charms, appliques, you name it there is some kind of use for them.

These are so quick to make and it gives me an opportunity to work on my photography and with different colors on a smaller scale.

My Daughter won't be pleased with a dead on shot or the shadows, but hey, I'm in training, right?

I start making snowflakes about this time of year.  I think it is because it makes me feel like it is a lot cooler outside then it really is.  Helps me get through the final stages of the desert heat.

I can't decide if I should stiffen them, or just leave them natural.  What do you think?

With Grace,

Debra
