So i have been collecting and saving beer bottle caps for the past 2 years and my collection has outgrown the container i was keeping them in, and now im starting to wonder what i am going to do with all of these. I have almost 1000, 945 to be exact (yes i keep track of them in an excel spread sheet) and i was wondering if my fellow headfiers had any creative suggestions to what i should do with them. I am leaning towards some kind of art project mosaic or something. I have enough to cover about a 3ft x 3ft square. here is a pic to give you a general idea for how big the collection is:

i look forward to your ideas

3x3 piece of cardboard or plywood... make a mosaic using the different colors.

I used to collect movie ticket stubs. Got up to several hundred before I stopped caring.

Make a picture of your favorite album, or of a generic looking or specific headphone. Beer bottle is also another possibility.

any suggestions for a picture? the majority of the colors are black and blue

 

[Fitz]

I would suggest a picture of something with a lot of black and blue in it.

Dump them on a sleeping cat. Get video.

I would separate them by color and then mount them that way. Kind of like a beer cap rainbow?

unfortunately rainbows probably don't go over big with my college buddies

coffee table.

take some plywood and cover the bottle caps on it (design it whatever you feel like) and use beer bottles as the legs.

decorate a headphone stand

Use the bottle caps to make a shield, duh. Or a helmet. Next time you're drunk and brandishing a broken beer bottle at your friends, you'll look more badass. Hail beer knight!

I would make a mosaic, headphone related or music related, or not, to put in your listening area...

Always looks good to have something, even if its just a Rastorbated image.

I'd just make a bottle cap mosaic ..you could make the big cap say whatever you want

.. like ...

"beer"
"i'm cool"
"had too much time"
"i love caps"(then start collecting capacitors )

or something funny or with sense..

show a pic when you're done =)
