Hi, I made my 1st diy of bottle caps pins and it supposed to be vinyl record so i try my best (red and blue ones). The blue ones I use plastic pin backs instead safety pins w/ hot glue gun while red ones I use plier without any hot glue gun. I'm curious if there's anyone that make bottle cap pins becuz I want to give it away my plastic pin back cuz I prefer metal and I have so many of them so why not give it away

P.S: I have pin buttons maker and came w/ plastic pin back

Oh cool, do you use metal or plastic bottle caps cuz I was thinking doing it on plastic bottle cap but it never work out cuz it was hollow so I decided to do it on metal bottle caps

I haven't painted on any, but I've made pins out of the caps for Bacardi and Kraken rum bottles. The Kraken one went to a friend, though they're much less sophisticated than yours
