Plastic Bottle Caps Crafts Ideas
In a separate article, we saw what we can do with plastic bottles instead of throwing them away. Options were countless and the final results were simply spectacular with the waste taking the shape of new object with a new utility in our homes. This time we are turning our attention to plastic bottle caps and see what new role they can play in our households without throwing them, as usual, in the garbage bin.
The first new utility we found for them is in the bathroom. Many times, soap dishes fill with water and the soap gets soft and doesn’t last that long while the dish gets sticky and hard to handle and calls for time to time cleaning. An easy solution is to use the plastic bottle caps, arranged and glued in a small container or a plastic lid, while using small gravel for aesthetic reasons. The soap will thus stay dry and could be used for a longer time.
