Description:

I love making bottlecap necklaces and magnets,but I never see a swap on here for them. I can't be the only one who likes making them so I decided to host my own swap. This is my first time hosting so I will keep it simple. You will be making a spooky bottlecap magnet for one partner.Take a bottle cap left over from an adult beverage or one from the craft store and paste a spooky image inside (zombie,crow,skulls,etc). Make sure to fill your cap with clear resin and glue a magnet to the back. You are only required to make one but if you want to send more that is fine. Also,if you do decide to use a cap left over from a drink,make sure to remove the rubber coating from the inside. This can be done simply by filling the cap with acetone (I found 100% acetone at Walmart). After letting it sit you can peel the rubber out with tweasers. I will angel if necessary. 4.9 and above rating. If you have any questions just pm me.

I've always wanted to try this! Is the resin expensive?

HelloBexx 10/17/2013 #

@dreamweaver I usually get a large container of resin by casting craft from Michael's for around $20. You can get a smaller starter kit also by casting craft for $14 on amazon,Michael's also carries it but I think its about $21 from there. It includes your resin and catalyst. Thanks for your intrest and I hope to see you in the swap. If have any further questions or need any help getting started feel free to ask.

I have 2 different kinds of paper glaze laminating and glazing liquid. Will this work or does it have to be resin?

@AmyHale That will work too. :)
