My oldest sons are VERY excited about the new Avengers movie opening this weekend, and they are passing the time by reading books and googling the different superheroes. I always struggle with finding “boyish” crafts I can make for them, so I was excited to see if this idea would work.
I am not a jewelry maker, so I made do with supplies I had on hand. Since I hoard purchase quite a bit from Mindy Mae’s Market, I dug through my stash and used the following:
I printed several superhero logos using an awesome free font called Hall of Heroes. I used my one inch circle punch to cut out the image, then glued it into the bottle cap. I topped it off with the resin sticker.
To get the cap to fit on the center ring of the bracelet I had to modify it. I removed one strap and slipped the earring hook through it. Then I twisted it shut as a sort of jump ring.
I used an actual jump ring to reattach the band to the center circle. I repeated this with the other strap.
I used E6000 to glue two grommets to the center circle, and after it set I glued the bottle cap on top of the grommets.

Hi Morena! Sorry to comment on your post, I couldn’t find your email. I follow you on Pinterest. Wondering if there was a trick to when you pin your tutorials- I notice sometimes the pins I create don’t get in the Pinterest feed and then no one sees them (aside from my followers). It looks like yours get seen. Any suggestions? Thanks!
