About the Event
Use melted bottle caps and plastics to make unique colorful jewelry. This project will take previously melted plastics like bottle tops, yogurt containers or pill bottles, heat them up, and create shapes with cookie cutters. Both Halloween and non-Halloween cookie cutter shapes will be available. With a drill and jewelry hardware, plastic charms can be made into earrings or other jewelry. This project is best for those who can do fine work with pliers as well as can work safely around hot materials. Parental involvement encouraged for anyone 16 and under.
This is a free event. All materials and tools are provided. Materials are 100% post-consumer meaning we use only reclaimed, recycled or donated items.
