Acorns

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love everything about it. The food, the colors and the closeness of family and friends. It is a time that everyone gets together and shares the closing of the year. It is always a time for me, when I reflect upon the year and start setting goals for next year.

Acorns seem to be a fascination for me this year. I was quite fortunate to find a few at a thrift store. Where I am from, they are not something that you can find on your daily walks.

I have stared the process of painting the caps and crocheting balls for the bottom to make some decorative acorns to sprinkle on my dining room table for Thanksgiving. I may trying some felting as well.

In the process of doing this, I realized that another plastic bottle craft creation is being formed. It just hit me that I can make acorns from one of the section of the plastic bottle.

Today, I will be working towards a new creation with the plastic bottle.

Plastic Bottle Cap

Today, I will be finishing the process of everything you can do with the plastic water bottle. If I can come up with just one craft for all parts of the bottle, then I can start the process again and come up with more.

So far to date, I have made bags with the bottom, bracelets with the center, tussie mussie's with the top, wreaths with the plastic ring, and last but not least crochet magnets with the cap.

I am now ready to start the process again and create new items.

Here are a couple of my plastic bottle cap magnets.

I need a pin for Halloween, so I believe I will be making crochet bottle cap pumpkins.
