Where do you get your bottle caps?
Home brew stores carry unused bottle caps. I purchase bottle caps by the box (10,800 caps per box).

How did you come up with this?
How did you come up with this?
I was playing around with the whole bottle cap process when I took a class up in Edmonds. The resin never cured and the whole thing was a sticky mess - but so FUN! I accepted the challenge and ended up with lots of bottle caps... and everyone seemed to really like them. So I started selling them!
Do you teach bottle cap classes?
Yup, although I mainly teach my secret bottle cap art to troops. I also offer smaller classes as well.

Do you make other stuff?
Do you make other stuff?
Yup. In most of the shops that carry my bottle cap items you can also find note cards and some carry my tile coasters also.
I make plenty of other thing too that are one of a kind items, 50lb cement leaf, chalkboards and other items that can fall in the "mixed media" section of the craft world.
