Bottle cap Snowman Ornaments:
Take all the bottle caps that you have in your home and paint their inside white. Now glue three bottle caps in a series on a ribbon, leaving a loop of ribbon at top. Now you paint the eyes, nose, mouth, and buttons on the three caps and let it dry. As per your wish, you can even add sparkle to the bottle caps that will make them look nicer. You can tie a piece of ribbon between the first and the second bottle cap, which will look like a scarf in snowmanโs neck.
Christmas tree
If you or your child has this fondness to collect wine bottle corks, then you are certainly going to like this craft. You will need around twenty corks to make this Christmas tree. Let your son or daughter color the end of cork in whichever colors they like. Now you arrange the corks together to form a shape of Christmas tree and then glue them together. Now add a loop string at the top to use as a hanger and in the end you can add a cork at the bottom to give a trunk to the tree.
