I have been saving caps for quite some time (If you can see the bucket, we started around Halloween time!!)! We keep this small bucket on the kitchen counter (Does wonders for the decor!) and then empty it out regularly to our box the holds the real collection, hey how did that Box Top get in here?? We first started saving caps when we made a space ship and used the caps as buttons and dials and knobs and even a steering wheel with the largest one! It was so much fun we decided to keep on saving!!
One of our first and favorite creations with the caps was an alphabet memory game! We put stickers in matching white bottle caps (yikes, you can tell how much bottled water we drink!!) and then we turn them upside down and get matching!! We plan on putting colored garage sale dots on the one side of these eventually, because if we play outside, you can see through a little bit with the bright sun!!
Pictured here is only 1 set, just so you could see the letters closely!!

I need to get myself some of those letter stickers...
There are many different ones in the TARGET dollar spot right now AND in their .99 Scrapbooking section.
I made bottlecap letters to spell with but I never thought of turning it into a memory game! Fun recycling and educational idea!
Thank you!!! We love to recycle around here!!!
