Marvelous Medallions

What's your drink of choice this summer?

Mine's root beer.

Thus the growing bottle cap collection:

But from blah...

I turned them into Tada!

Cute medallions that can be a fun activity

for a play date or a sweet party favor.

Want to make some?

I'll show you how!

Here are the things we'll need: scissors, needle, thread,

clean bottle caps, scrap fabric, felt remnants & hot glue.

Cut the fabric scraps into circles ( about 2 1/2 inches).

Make a running stitch around the fabric.

Gather the ends together by pulling the thread.

Insert the bottle cap inside the fabric before

fully pulling the thread to seal the edges.

Make several neat knots at the end

to keep the thread from unraveling.

Cut the excess thread.

Flip the bottle caps and Tada!,

they look like covered buttons!

Decorate further with designs made from felt remnants

and attach to bottle cap with hot glue.

Make a little loop at the top using

needle & thread.

Insert a piece of ribbon, lace, chain or leather string

through the loop.

Tada! An instant medallion to award to good girls & boys!
