How to Make Bottle Cap Necklaces

Supplies:
Bottle Caps (found in the jewelry section at Hobby Lobby or in bulk online)
Earth Magnets (also found at Hobby Lobby)
E6000
3/8" Washers (from Home Depot)
Necklaces (we used ribbon necklaces)
One Inch circle punch (from the scrapbook section)
Scrap decorative paper
Mod Podge Matte Finish
Small Paint Brush

Using the one inch punch, punch out the paper that you want to make your necklace.  If you turn the punch and paper over, you can see exactly what is in the circle.  Using Mod Podge and a small paint brush, "paint" the back of the paper and place it on the bottle cap.  Allow to dry for a minute then "paint" the top/decorative side of the paper.  Using the E6000 glue the magnet to the back of the bottle cap and allow to dry.  Next, loop the necklace through the washer.  The magnet will "stick" to the washer adhering the bottle cap to the necklace.  Enjoy your necklace!!!
