Bottle Cap Acorn

God does work in mysterious ways.

I want acorns to scatter on my dining room table for Thanksgiving. I picked up the bag of acorns and caps at the thrift store and proceeded to crochet the nut portion for the cap. Cute idea, I see them all the time. Felted ones, as well.

I know I am suppose to be thinking about my plastic bottles and the second round of crafting and the things you can make with a plastic bottle. As I sat and came up with patterns for the nut portion of the acorn and how the cap should look, I am asking friends to send me acorns, I will pay for the postage, you know the story.

Then low and behold, it dawned on me, I have another bottle cap crafts.

I already had everything I needed.

I will be away for awhile, have a great week everyone!!!

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.
