More Fun With Bottle Caps

OK, so I think I'm on a roll with this bottle cap thing.....  It's way too much fun to play with and I can't seem to stop.  As you can see there are still some unused buttons waiting for their books so there must be more to do.    I've been so busy making the books that I haven't gotten them listed on Etsy yet, but that will happen soon.   
So many beverages, so little time.... pass me a cold one and a bottle opener please.

Bottle Cap Buttons

Fun with bottle caps!   
I have been making bottle cap buttons embellished with stamped polymer clay centers.   The edges of the bottle cap are hammered and holes are punched into the metal from the back.   Polymer clay is pressed into the center and a rubber stamp is used to embellish it with design.  Holes are opened up through the clay.   The buttons are baked to cure the polymer clay and with the metal backings, they are very durable.
