The women and girls of Nicology came up with the idea of adorning the faces of the bottle caps. What do you think? Thank you for feedback!

Flat caps





The idea of flattening the caps came from a group of girls in one of my first classes. There were a few who really relished wielding that hammer!

Flat caps can be made into one-sided or double-sided earrings. The double-sided earrings shown here are extra-special because the caps from Tahiti are hard to come by. They also demonstrate the double-stranded mount.
