First, get your 2 bottle caps!
if your bottle tops have a rubber layer on...like mine! Just peel it off..it's pretty easy to do!
The 2 bottle tops should look like this:
Use the end of your hammer or pliers to bend the the rims.
Keep bending...
There you go! They should now look like this:
Thread your beads onto a piece of string or tread and tie a small knot, so that the beads form a circle.
Like this:
gather up all your things together.
Draw round both of your bottle tops onto your fabric and cut them out.
Also cut out a small strip of fabric
You should now have this:
Glue your strip onto one bottle cap
Then onto the other
Then add the beads to the outside:
Glue your 2 circles of fabric onto your bottle tops like this:
Then add your decoration to the locket
Add a chain and your done!!
