Bottle Cap Snowmen Ornaments

Cute and easy with endless colorful combinations of ribbon, these bottle cap snowmen ornaments will look great on your tree or as gift tags on wrapped presents.

What you’ll need: Bottle caps; white, orange and black craft paint; craft paint brushes; contrasting ribbons; small buttons; hot glue gun and glue sticks.

Step 1: Paint inside of three bottle caps white with craft paint and let dry. Some bottle caps will need a second coat of paint.

Step 2: Paint on snowman face details: black coal eyes, orange carrot nose, coal smile. On second bottle cap, paint three black coal buttons. Let dry.

Step 3: Measure a length of ribbon, about 5 to 6 inches. Fold it over on itself about an inch and hot glue to make a loop at the top.

Step 4: Hot glue the painted bottle caps onto the length of the ribbon with the loop at the top, and cut off any excess at the bottom.

Step 5: Cut small contrasting ribbon to tie a scarf around the snowman’s neck. Hot glue in place if necessary. Add button detail by hot gluing a small button to the knot of the scarf.
