San Francisco Giants Decoupaged Bottle



As part of a friend's birthday package, which included this Mickey cup cozy and this Mickey/Fantasia-esque phone case, I also made her SF Giants themed decoupaged bottle.  She's a huge fan of the Giants so I thought this would make a pretty awesome and useful gift.  I printed out the SF logo, cut it to size, decoupaged and then blinged it up.

Scientist Magnet



What started out as request for one scientist turned into a magnet set once my imagination started working.  It all started with this Einstein magnets I made a few weeks ago.  After that post, that magnet set was sold and went to a new home.  Another request came in for the Einstein magnets along with one of Nikola Tesla and his coil.  My challenge was to figure out how to make the coil, well, look like a coil.  While brainstorming, I knew I had to add Sheldon Cooper.  Can't have great scientists in a set without including Sheldon Cooper :)

Kawaii Fruit!



They say the recommended fruit servings per day is two.  Take your pick of these no calories and too cute to eat jumbo fruity magnets.

Mario!





I made this Mario magnet a while back.  I actually forgot about it until just now when I was looking through the pics of stuff that I'd made :)

Lovebug Magnet!



One of the things I plan on making is a cute bug magnet set which will include a butterfly, a dragonfly and a bee. Just need one more cute bug to add to the set.

Spring Owls Magnet Set!

Thomas the Train and Friends

I made this cute set as a request from my friend for her son. Like the magnets, plastic bottlecaps are used to give the stacked look of the locomotives.

Plastic bottle cap OWL magnets



I think these plastic bottle cap Owl magnets are my favorites so far! I made these using plastic bottle caps from juice bottles and soda bottles with some felt, stuffing, love and imagination!

Happy Almost Halloween!




Although I don't partake in the costumes, I love Halloween because of the creepy (but cute!) decor and also because it takes place in the Fall (one of my favorite seasons). Of course, I can't also not make any Halloween stuff :)

I just finished making a Halloween bottle cap magnet set. I may be a little biased but I am really loving the new magnets :) Click on the picture to take you to the Etsy listing for more details.

Plastic Bottlecap Farm Animals




Ever since I found out a few years ago that plastic bottlecaps were not recyclable (they are a different grade of plastic than their recyclable counterparts), I've been hording them and searching the internet for projects on what I could with them. I really didn't find many projects (if any at all) that I liked so when the idea to make animal magnets popped into my head, the gears in my head started turning. I started with three: a panda, a koala and a pig and shared them on facebook...which became a hit.!

So, here is the first set: the farm animals. I have plans for a few more sets but they will be unveiled one set at a time. Stay tuned soon to see what the next one will be!
