Craft Tip: Flattening Bottle Caps

Today Sara Sandberg at  Crafting in Paradise shares this fabulous tip on how to easily flatten bottle caps in her instructional video!  I love how her technique on flattening bottle caps creates the perfect circle I try to achieve with a hammer…and I fail!

DIY-252520bottle-252520cap-252520business-252520cards_thumb-25255B2-25255DSara uses a nifty little machine called the Cuttlebug.  You can use any other manual die cut machines, too.  I love mind blowing tips like these!

…and how fun that she made a bottle cap into a business card!

    That is definitly one of the coolest tips I’ve seen lately! I just tried it and it is SO, SO easy! Much easier than hitting the bottle cap with a mallet!
